When Death of a Salesman opened in 1949, Arthur Miller’s play was quickly hailed as a masterpiece, and won every major award that year: New York Drama Critics' Circle Best Play, Tony Award for Best Play and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Running for over two years when it first opened in New York, this play has been long known as a great classic of the American theater: the story of a common man, the life of Willy Loman as he faces the end of his career and the unattainable American dream.
This production takes a fresh new look at an old classic to create a Salesman for a new generation.
