A View From The Bridge

West End Transfer

After selling out its run at Bath's Theatre Royal, this starry production of Arthur Miller's classic play will transfer to the West End's Theatre Royal Haymarket, offering audiences another opportunity to see Dominic West (The Crown), Kate Fleetwood (Harlots), and Callum Scott Howells (It's A Sin, Cabaret) reprise their roles as Italian American family grappling with the immigrant experience in 1950s New York.

Direction comes from Lindsay Posner, with design by Peter McKintosh.

What is the story?

Eddie Carbone eeks out an existence by working the docks in 1950s Brooklyn, where he lives with his wife Beatrice and her young niece Catherine. Now a teenager, Catherine is blossoming into womanhood, eliciting a sexual longing in Eddie which he does his best to repress. His inner turmoil is forced to the surface by the arrival of two illegal Italian immigrants into the house, one of whom catches Catherine's eye, driving Eddie to try and assert his dominance.

An oft-revived work of Miller's A View From The Bridge has also been adapted for film, television and notably, opera!
