All My Sons
by Arthur Miller
Directed by Carl Olson
Performance dates: February 4- February 27, 2011
During the war, Joe Keller
and Herbert Deever ran a machine shop which made airplane parts.
Deever was sent to prison because the firm turned out defective
parts, causing the deaths of many men. Keller went free and made a
lot of money.
The twin shadows of this
catastrophe and the fact that the young Keller son was reported
missing during the war dominate the action. The love affair of Chris
Keller and Ann Deever, the bitterness of George Deever returned from
the war to find his father in prison and his father's partner free,
are all set in a structure of almost unbearable power.
"The climax showing the
reaction of a son to his guilty father is a fitting conclusion to
the play, electrifying in its intensity." |
