DEATH OF A SALESMAN at Hartford Stage

A salesman has got to dream. This Tony Award and Pulitzer Prize winner is one of the most profound classic dramas of the American theater and a poignant story of the perilously high cost of the American Dream. Willy Loman desperately craves success for himself and his sons, but stark reality cannot live up to his dreams. The wall of delusions he has constructed quietly crumbles around him while a devastated and demoralized man searches in vain for a hidden path to greatness. Meanwhile, his devoted wife holds out hope, and his sons wrestle with their own failings. Death of a Salesman is beautifully written and endlessly surprising, revealing new truths to every generation of audiences.
