More information about Death of a Salesman
Nathan Lane plays Willy Loman, a towering figure in American drama. A family man with a job that's going nowhere, a wife who is trying her best, and two sons competing for love, Willy is one of theatre's most treasured roles.
The New York Times theater critic Brooks Atkinson wrote of that original production, “By common consent, this is one of the finest dramas in the whole range of the American theater. Humane in its point of view, it has stature and insight, awareness of life, respect for people and knowledge of American manners and of modern folkways. It is virtuoso theater. It brings the theater alive.”
In a statement, Kate Miller, Trustee of the Arthur Miller Literary and Dramatic Property Trust, shared, “This production promises to channel Salesman's dynamic power in a completely new way. Part of what's so exciting about Joe Mantello’s approach is that he has been immersing himself in our extensive archives and interacting with Arthur's earliest drafts of Salesman — sounding out a deeper understanding of the play's inner workings."
What to watch for
- In a statement, director Joe Mantello said, "Looking through Miller’s early drafts revealed insights into the play’s first impulses, including some surprising theatrical ideas."
- "In 1995 while rehearsing a Terrence McNally play with Joe, he turned to me out of the blue and quietly said, ‘Someday you and I are going to do Death of a Salesman,’" Nathan Lane said in a statement.
