The great Arthur Miller confronts the American dream in this dark and passionate tale. In Brooklyn, longshoreman Eddie Carbone welcomes his Sicilian cousins to the land of freedom. But when one of them falls for his beautiful niece, they discover that freedom comes at a price. Eddie’s jealous mistrust exposes a deep, unspeakable secret – one that drives him to commit the ultimate betrayal.
The visionary Ivo van Hove directs this ‘magnetic, electrifying, astonishingly bold’ production of Miller’s tragic masterpiece, which features a stellar cast led by Mark Strong (The Imitation Game; Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy) and was selected as the top theatre pick of 2014 by the Evening Standard, Guardian and Independent.

"By the end you feel both emotionally drained and unexpectedly elated – the classic hallmarks of a great tragic production." - The Daily Telegraph
