Arthur Miller’s tragic World War II drama is to return to Broadway next spring via the Roundabout Theater Company.
“All My Sons,” Arthur Miller ’s tragic World War II drama, will return to Broadway next spring with Annette Bening and Tracy Letts in starring roles.
The classic play, about a family torn apart over a son gone missing and a military-parts scandal, was first staged on Broadway in 1947 and was revived in 1987 and 2008. It has also been adapted several times for film and television.
This season’s revival, directed by Gregory Mosher and produced by the nonprofit Roundabout Theater Company, is to begin performances April 4 and to open April 22 at the American Airlines Theater. Its run will coincide with a British revival, starring Sally Field and Bill Pullman, at the Old Vic in London.
Ms. Bening, best known as a film actress (“The Grifters,” “The Kids Are All Right”), has appeared on Broadway once before, in 1987, in “ Coastal Disturbances ”; she was nominated for a Tony Award for that performance.
Mr. Letts, an acclaimed playwright as well as a performer, won a Pulitzer Prize and a Tony Award as the author of “ August: Osage County,” and another Tony as an actor in a revival of “ Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf? ”
