Jan 18 & 19, 1pm. Filmed live from The Old Vic in London and presented in encore screenings at the Playhouse, Academy Award-winner Sally Field (Steel Magnolias, Lincoln) and Bill Pullman (The Sinner, Independence Day) star in Arthur Miller’s blistering drama All My Sons.
America, 1947. Despite hard choices and even harder knocks, Joe and Kate Keller are a success story. They have built a home, raised two sons and established a thriving business.
But nothing lasts forever and their contented lives, already shadowed by the loss of their eldest boy to war, are about to shatter. With the return of a figure from the past, long buried truths are forced to the surface and the price of their American dream is laid bare.
Jeremy Herrin (NT Live: This House) directs the cast, which also includes Jenna Coleman (Victoria), and Colin Morgan (Merlin) alongside Bessie Carter, Oliver Johnstone, Kayla Meikle and Sule Rimi.
What the critics say:
"Sally Field and Bill Pullman deliver a Miller for our times. In an era of fake news and moral uncertainty, this fine production of Arthur Miller’s play rings as true as ever." - Guardian
"An extraordinary evening of theatre. All My Sons is a finely drawn, perfectly plotted, remarkably resonant mixture of the personal and the political...its cumulative power takes your breath away." - The Times
"Bill Pullman and Sally Field grab the audience by the jugular in this brilliant Arthur Miller revival. When star casting pays off as handsomely as this it’s a thrill to watch." - London Telegraph
