Direct from two completely sold-out engagements in London, where it swept the 2015 Olivier Awards winning for Best Revival, Best Director, and Best Actor (Mark Strong), A View from the Bridge opened last fall to rave reviews from the New York critics. The Associated Press called it "a stunning, imaginative and impassioned no-holds-barred theatrical experience." Newsday agreed, describing the production as "stripped down, stunning, and mythic." New York Magazine proclaimed the production "brilliantly theatrical; the action is tightly focused and so precipitous that it sometimes seems you're on an elevator whose cables have been cut." With the New York Post summing it all up by calling van Hove's production of A View from the Bridge, "the stuff of Broadway legend."

The Broadway cast of A View from the Bridge - Arthur Miller's dark and passionate classic drama set on the Brooklyn waterfront - wass headed by Mark Strong (as Eddie Carbone), Nicola Walker (as Eddie's wife Beatrice), Phoebe Fox (as his niece Catherine), Russell Tovey (as Rodolpho), Michael Zegen (as Marco), Michael Gould (as Alfieri), and Richard Hansell(as Louis).
