Death of a Salesman

Tragic scrutiny of the American Dream's cost.

If you've ever felt caught in the relentless pursuit of success and happiness as prescribed by society, "Death of a Salesman" speaks to that struggle. You’ll find yourself reflecting on the pressures of societal expectations and the often unattainable American Dream through Willy Loman's haunting story. Arthur Miller crafts a narrative that's as relevant today as it was at its release—resonating with anyone who has questioned their place in a world where worth is often measured in material success.

  • Pulitzer Prize for Drama (1949)
  • New York Drama Critics' Circle Award for Best American Play (1949)

Description

In the spring of 1948, Arthur Miller retreated to a log cabin in Connecticut with the first two lines of a new play already fixed in his mind. He emerged six weeks later with the final script of Death of a Salesman - a painful examination of American life and consumerism. Opening on Broadway the following year, Miller's extraordinary masterpiece changed the course of modern theatre. In creating Willy Loman, his destructively insecure anti-hero, Miller himself defined his aim as being 'to set forth what happens when a man does not have a grip on the forces of life'.
