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.
Two estranged half-brothers – one in Grangeville, one in Amsterdam – reconnect virtually in discussions surrounding care for their ailing mother. A play about the fallibility of memory, the stories we tell to make sense of our suffering, and the complexity of forgiveness.
