JCC members receive a 20% discount to The Magnetic Theater‘s production of Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman when they buy tickets online.
Among the handful of great American stage dramas of the 20th century, Arthur Miller’s Death of a Salesman stands at or near the top. The extraordinary story of traveling salesman Willy Loman’s love for his family, and his dissolution in the face of the changing world of 1948, his failing powers as he ages, and the trouble his sons are having establishing themselves securely in their lives, revolves around the past, the present, and fantasies colliding inside Willy’s head.
“Death of a Salesman has become such an accepted part of the canon,” says director Henry Williamson, who recently directed his own adaptations of The Seagull and Hamlet, “that we tend to forget how revolutionary its dramatic structure was and still is today. The play moves in and out of different aspects of Willy’s life, filtering everyone and everything through his mind, blurring the lines between fact and fancy, creating a symphonic rendering of the interplay of thought and time.
The show is directed by Henry Williamson and stars Steven Samuels as Willy, Jane Hallstrom as Linda, Erik Moellering as Biff, and Allan Law as Happy.
Shows are Thursdays – Saturdays at 7:30pm through May 28th.
