How 2 Russian directors and 1 American one are making Chekhov's work speak to the moment, and how a seasoned community-based theatremaker is having a ball on Broadway.

Though the two strategies have traditionally been planned separately, audience behavior shows they’re more powerful when conceived together.

One man and his family are caught up in the pressures and delusions of living the American Dream. Miller’s play is the story of a traveling salesman whose illusions of picture-perfect business and family life…

Mantello has leaned into the play’s sense of abstraction — Willy often loses himself in his own mind — which has the effect of emphasizing both its timelessness and its timeliness. (Miller’s working tit…

And yet, I was ultimately unmoved. Why? In sitting uncertainly between total adornment and its weighted ideas of temporal displacement, the production had never quite gotten me there. This Salesman tries to be …

From the breathtaking opening scene when a car drives onstage, its bright headlights shining into the audience, to the moment it backs out of Chloe Lamford’s astonishing set, this Salesman dazzles. The cast, …

A worthwhile revival will always give you the feeling — even more significant than re-seeing an astonishing play — of truly hearing it, and that’s what happens here. Again and again, as Lane moved with de…

Down to the smallest roles, this production is astutely cast, and its arresting design elements add a suitably shabby grandeur to the play’s unsparing view of America’s broken promises. Mantello does some o…

But first and last, Salesman is Willy’s story, and generation after Broadway generation has thrown its best into the role, from Lee J. Cobb, Fredric March (in the 1951 film), George C. Scott, Brian Dennehy an…

The newest Broadway production of Arthur Miller’s storied play (directed by Joe Mantello) has lost none of its power in the tale of a man fighting the demons of his past while also struggling with the dwindli…

As with his direction of the actors, however, Mantello likes to pour it on gooey. Each act is introduced with Caroline Shaw’s overly somber music, reaching for but failing to achieve Philip Glass profundity. …

What’s most striking is the musicality of his voice. This isn’t a musical, and yet it often feels like one when he speaks. Lane shapes Miller’s language as if he’s singing it, or delivering a Shakespear…

Theatrely's Broadway production of Death Of A Salesman directed by Joe Mantello and starring Nathan Lane, Laurie Metcalf, and Christopher Abbott at the Winter Garden Theatre in New York City.

Arthur Miller’s classic tragedy returns to Broadway, starring Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf. Yet again, it is a triumph.

Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf lead a brutally lucid revival custom built for the Ponzi Casino Shitstorm of disaster capitalism.

When Arthur Miller's seminal work Death of a Salesman was first produced in 1949, and indeed for some time after, it was viewed as an indictment of the evanescent nature of the "American Dream," namely the mist…

Some may say that Arthur Miller’s play “Death of a Salesman” may be the greatest play of the 20th century and there is evidence that supports that claim. It premiered on Broadway in 1949, winning the Pul…

Christopher Abbott and Ben Ahlers also star in Joe Mantello’s Broadway revival of the 1949 landmark American drama, which remains sadly relevant more than 75 years later.

At the end of the superb and unforgettable revival that hauntingly unfolds there among its shadows, arrives a thrilling takeaway: That was the best “Death of a Salesman” I have ever seen.

Some of our very best actors got their start in comedy — so it’s only natural that sitcom veterans Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf should arrive on Broadway as that most deadly serious couple in American the…

Don’t waste time asking whether we really need another Death of a Salesman, and certainly don’t even begin to question whether Nathan Lane has the dramatic chops to tackle one of American theater’s great …
