Continuing its effort of producing rarely"independently" produced works in the classical theatre canon, GoKash Productions presents a spin on the Arthur Miller classic "Death of a Salesman".
Death of a Salesman has been recognized as a milestone of the American theatre. In the person of Willy Loman - the aging, failing salesman who makes his living riding a smile and a shoeshine - Arthur Miller redefined the tragic hero as a man who's dreams are at once insupportably vast and dangerously insubstantial. Death of a Salesman compresses epic extremes of humor and anguish, promise and loss, between the four walls of an American living room.
Inspired by the 2009 Yale production starring Charles S. Dutton, producer Kash Goins will perform the role of Willie Loman. Director Ozzie Jones weaves this caustic attack on the American dream of materialism with an all African American cast.
The show opens tonight, July 30, 2014. The three-week run presents Wednesdays and Thursdays at 7:30PM, Fridays and Saturdays at 8:00PM, with 3:00PM matinees on Saturdays and Sundays thru August 17th. All Shows will be presented at Plays and Players Theatre (1st floor main stage), 1714 Delancey St. Philadelphia, PA 19103.
