All My Sons

An intellectual and emotional play that speaks as loudly today as in the immediate post-war period in which it is set.

Set over a single day in a small American town, this classic play is a compelling story of love, guilt and the corrupting power of greed. In the aftermath of World War II, the Keller and Deever families struggle to come to terms with the brutal reality of what they’ve lost and gained. A shameful family secret is uncovered, but how far would a man go to protect his family, his interests and his legacy?

This play examines social responsibility against personal gain and is commonly regarded as one of the most successful plays of the twentieth century. All My Sons was arguably the springboard for Miller to become one of the most celebrated and important playwrights of the last hundred years.
