SUMMARY:The Price
DESCRIPTION:by Arthur Miller\n																														\nDirector’s Note\n“… with used furniture you cannot be emotional.”… but The Price is a piece about the price of used furniture and the price of one’s decisions.The Price is one of Miller’s most under-recognized and least appreciated works. It opened on Broadway in 1968 where it enjoyed 429 performances. The American Dream – the notion that, with a combination of hard work, tenacity, ingenuity and perhaps a little luck, anyone can reap the rewards of success – is a fixture in many of Arthur Miller’s plays. Whether it is Joe Keller in All My Sons, Willy Loman in Death of a Salesman, or the Franz brothers in The Price, each, according to Miller, “embraces the illusion of attaining the forever elusive, unquestionably mythic American Dream”… But what happens when the dream does indeed remain elusive? It’s a struggle Miller’s characters confront.The Price suggests that ‘The American Dream’ always demands compromise. What, it asks, is the cost of those compromises, and are its rewards worth the sacrifices? I think that there are no proper answers to the questions of responsibility and loyalty raised in The Price – each brother is simply acting according to his own beliefs. The brothers may be seen as being on opposite sides … but it’s not a question of positive or negative, but rather that each carries a price. Responsibility always does – both in the accepting and in the shirking.Roger Holland\nCast & Crew\nCast\nVictor Franz …Phil CleggEsther Franz… June HolmesGregory Solomon …John GillespieWalter Franz… Andrew Wilson\nCrew\nDirector Roger HollandSet design Roger Holland, Ken WrightSet construction Reg Guerin, Terry Foley, Tony GlynnStage manager Ann TunnicliffeLighting design & operation David PlowrightSound design & operation Sam Winterbottam, Steve HendrenCostume Edwina Rigby, the castProps Anne WrightPrompt Patricia Redshaw, Jill WoodsP.A.
