“This production of sees the Next Stage theatre company hitting the top of its admirable form.”
Possibly Arthur Miller's most enduring creation, "Salesman" has played across the globe with immense success - it even sparked a version for China, adapted by Miller himself, called Salesman in Beijing.
A study of disillusionment, failure and self-deception, the play sees Willy Loman, a little man trying to live the "American Dream", slowly being beaten into the realisation it's a hollow ideal. Battling with his sons, Biff and Happy, he fights against a system apparently always at odds with him, to provide for his family and become the successful salesman he believes himself to be.
The company is fielding a strong cast headed by John Matthews who gave a memorable performance as Eddie in its 1999 Rose Bowl winning production of Miller's A View From The Bridge.
