One family, the heart of the American dream. When wartime delivers profits for Joe (Bryan Cranston), it comes at a price when his partner is charged with criminal manufacturing deals, and his eldest son (Paapa Essiedu) goes missing in action.
Will peacetime bring peace of mind, or will he be confronted by the consequence of his actions? Cranston (‘Breaking Bad’) and Marianne Jean-Baptiste (‘Hard Truths’) feature in this disturbingly prescient play, along with Essiedu (‘I May Destroy You’), Tom Glynn-Carney (‘House of the Dragon’) and Hayley Squires (‘I, Daniel Blake’).
Across two powerful and gripping hours Arthur Miller skewers the promise of the American Dream as the action “plays out symphonically building to an astonishing crescendo”.
Filmed live from the West End.
