Synopsis
A PULITZER Prize and Tony Award-winning play – widely considered to be one of the 20th century’s greatest – comes to Limelight Theatre this March.
Written by Arthur Miller and directed by Kathleen Del Casale,
Death of a Salesman
is the story of Willy Loman, a man who realises his life isn’t the one he made it out to be.
Although he has worked hard, his family has always lived on the edge of poverty while Willy has constantly told himself and his family that his deserved big break was just around the corner.
“Through the expertly written, interweaving storylines of past and present, the audience begins to realise he has been his own worst enemy,” Del Casale said.
“It’s a story of how life can be really tough but, at the end of the day, we can’t blame anyone else for the life we have – we make the decisions and we get to choose.
“Miller was able to write a play that resonates with so many people, in so many different ways.”
The main challenge, according to Del Casale, is doing the play justice over a short rehearsal period.
“We have six weeks to make this happen but I know I have a great team and amazing actors who already feel the characters so deeply,” she said.
“As much as there are challenges, we’re certainly ready to overcome those and create a great show.”
Acting for the past 10 years, Del Casale has performed, directed or written for Stargate Actors Academy, HEY Fever, Snapshot Youth Theatre Company and Limelight Theatre.
In 2012-13, she travelled to the UK to play May Gibbs in a touring production of
River Dreaming
and followed it up in 2015-16 with
A Land of Legends
, a play she wrote, co-directed and stage-managed for another tour.
Del Casale is also working with Agelink Theatre on a Fremantle history project, as both a writer and actor.
“With
Death of a Salesman
, I can’t think of a better play to direct,” she said.
“The characters are so developed, complicated and nuanced – and the story is so beautifully sad.
“The more I read the script, the more I realise how much there is still to discover in the story.
“I’m a fan of minimalist theatre that challenges its audience to think and this play certainly does that.
“With the complexity of the characters and the poetic lines, I know I don’t need big set pieces and glitzy costumes because the words stand on their own.
“That is a real art and is what makes theatre, and
Death of a Salesman
, so special.”
Death of a Salesman
plays 8pm March 8, 9, 10, 14, 15, 16 and 17 with a 2pm matinee March 11. Tickets are $21, $18 concession – book at www.limelighttheatre.com.au or on 0499 954 016 between 9am and midday, Monday to Friday. The March 11 matinee includes afternoon tea for an extra $5.
