All My Sons is Arthur Miller's remarkable modern morality play about the cost of lying and the price of truth-telling. When a man places duty to his family above the lives of others, it is only a matter of time before everything he stands for will be torn apart.

a single day in 1947, the play follows the fortunes of "honest" Joe Keller (David Suchet), a family man to his core, who is haunted by a dark secret that had devastating consequences. Though his wife Kate, (Zoë Wanamaker), is party to his deception, she is desperately trying to hold the family together, clinging on to the hope that their missing son will return.
Director Howard Davies won an Olivier Award for his seminal National Theatre production of this play a decade ago, and has re-assembled the creative team (designer William Dudley, lighting Mark Henderson, music Dominic Muldowney, sound Paul Groothuis) for what is destined to be the theatrical event of 2010.
