Arthur Miller’s plays are such that to miss out on a production of them is simply not good form. All you really need to know about life in the United States in the 20th Century can be found in the writings of one of the keenest minds of the time and his look at certain frailties of life, emasculation, deceit, dishonour and the destruction of a system that was corrupt and hopelessly out of touch with his thinking, are repeated over and again in the hope that someone, anyone might understand what is going wrong in the country.
Arthur Miller’s devastating portrait of an ordinary man in a clash of cultures, generations and moral duty, A View From The Bridge opens the new season at Liverpool Playhouse from Thursday 27th March to Saturday 19th April. The production is directed by Quercus Award-winning Everyman and Playhouse Associate Director Charlotte Gwinner and features Lloyd Hutchinson as Eddie Carbone and Julia Ford as his wife Beatrice.
