| | The Price
by Arthur Miller
In Arthur Miller’s 1968 tour de force masterwork, THE PRICE, two brothers reunite in the attic of a New York brownstone to sort through their late father’s possessions. What begins as a long overdue reunion becomes an unforgettable exploration of the value of success versus personal integrity as four indelible characters struggle to make sense of the past and create a future.
Written late in Miller’s career, The Price is considered one of his most compelling and personal plays - beautifully driven by Miller’s language, it is a searching, poignant and humorous examination of responsibility, memory, and the moral weight of compromise.
Starring Dana Dewes-Jackson, Richard Fancy, Jason Hubert, and Scott Jackson
Directed by Elina de Santos
