After the Fall: Rarely Produced Classic by Arthur Miller from HumanArts Theater Company

Full Price:
$25.00
Our Price:
$12.50

Based on the playwright's life and considered one of Arthur Miller's most personal plays, After The Fall follows a man on his quest to make peace with his own history and with the tumultuous world around him. This experimental portrait of a man struggling with the choices he has made in his public and private life examines the personal, political and universal forces that collide when we "fall" from innocence. Following the death of his second wife, Quentin tries to move forward, but he must also relive childhood losses, failed marriages and the effects of the 1950s' Blacklist. This rarely produced classic is presented by the HumanArts Theater Company. Learn More

Brilliant job! Mesmerizingly fun to experience. She does such a good job in every role she carries... very tough to do with no visual changes other than facial expression. Brava Victoria Doggett!

I was tired and fall into sleep couple times. Basically, it's a one women show with interesting setting. She tell a story about a women, two men, and her cat. An ordinary story. But she is a good story teller. It's Ok to kill some time.

I had two problems with this piece - I didn't feel she had enough versatility to hold up a one-person show (though her accordion playing was very good) and I simply didn't find any of her characters likable enough to be engaging.
