The unraveling of the American Dream is at the heart of Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman. Winner of the 1949 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Play, this classic drama of the down-on-his-luck Willy Loman remains one of the most haunting plays in American Theatre.

The unraveling of the American Dream is at the heart of Arthur Miller's "Death of a Salesman." Winner of the 1949 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for Best Play, this classic drama of the down-on-his-luck salesman Willy Loman remains one of the most profound dramas in American theatre. Resonant themes of family tensions, deferred dreams and unfulfilled lives make up the landscape of this haunting play. Powerful and disturbing, Death of a Salesman is a modern tragedy which gives us a different perspective on the American Dream, and our obsession with material wealth and the trappings of success. Attention must be paid.

The cast features: John Nicholson, Kathy Recchia, Brendan Gotham, Dylan Duffy, Jordan Hornstein, Eric Worthington, Steven Hebert, Harrison Ewing, Olivia Zeis, McCayla Quinn, Danielle LaMere and Leslie Dame.
