Four Arthur Miller plays to hit London stages in 2019
Paul T Davies looks the four Arthur Miller plays which are being staged around London in 2019 There is so much theatre I’m looking forward to this year, regionally, in London and on the Fringe. It’s always difficult to pick out the potential hits of the year, but two well established names will dominate much review coverage in London. One is Pinter, with the Pinter at the Pinter season now crossing the half way mark and continuing with Pinter 5.6 and 7, with the much anticipated Martin Freeman/Danny Dyer pairing in The Dumb Waiter, and Tom Hiddlestone afterwards in Betrayal. But it’s Arthur Miller that will enjoy an almost festival like staging of his greatest plays, and they all offer superb acting, directors and staging. THE AMERICAN CLOCK – OLD VIC THEATRE The Old Vic gets this informal season off with a staging of Miller’s epic play about the stock … Read more

David Suchet and Brendan Coyle are to star in Arthur Miller’s The Price when it transfers to The Wyndham’s Theatre in February 2019 directed by Jonathan Church. The 50th anniversary production of Arthur Miller’s The Price will transfer to the West End following an acclaimed season from the Theatre Royal Bath.

Revelation follows stunning revelation as each brother realises the price they have paid for heart breaking decisions made decades earlier. Overseeing the psychological battlefield is the wily veteran appraiser, Gregory Solomon, who has his own demons to conquer as well as securing the best possible price for the Franz family possessions.

Arthur Miller’s The Crucible UK Tour
Arthur Miller’s classic drama The Crucible will tour the UK and Luxembourg in 2017 in a new production by Sell A Door Theatre Company and The Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch in association with Les Théâtres de la Ville de Luxembourg. The tour will start on Friday 17th February 2017 at the Queen’s Theatre Hornchurch. The Crucible will star Charlie Condou (Coronation Street), as the witch-hunter, Reverend Hale. Directed by the Queen’s Theatre’s Artistic Director Douglas Rintoul, this production of The Crucible will take a Brechtian look at this violent story of frail reason in the face of hysteria. One of the twentieth century’s landmark plays, Arthur Miller’s The Crucible stands as both a historical record and a political parable for our times. The unrelenting witchhunt and violence, an allegory of the brutal McCarthyism of American politics in the 1950’s, resonates with an unnerving clarity now in a post-Brexit UK where violent … Read more
