What's your favorite Arthur Miller play?

Question

I recently was involved in a production of The Crucible and it's my favorite Arthur Miller play.

Answer 1

Arthur Miller wrote some of the most thought provoking, well crafted plays of the late 1900's. My favorite is one of the least produced, least well known of those. It is a one act play that tells the story of a group of men (mostly Jewish) in Vichy France waiting to be interviewed by a German Professor. They fear that the Professor is looking for Jews to send to concentration camps. By some mistake, a member of the European Aristocracy is included in the group. His dialog with a Jewish doctor is brilliant.

The play is "Incident at Vichy." I highly recommend it.

Answer 2

I was a theater minor in college and I can only even think of The Crucible and Death of a Salesman. Your question may not get tons of diverse answers unless you happen upon a Miller fanatic!

Of the two, I prefer Death of a Salesman. I've always wanted to play the part of Biff on stage.

Answer 3

View From A Bridge - or The Crucible

Answer 4

I personally like the crucible but mainly because it is based on a true story. My family ancestors are actually Rev. Parris and Abigail I have heard this my whole life and then I read his book and it was as close as it could be to what really happened.

Answer 5

The Crucible (i played Tituba in my WDC debut)

Answer 6

Death of a Salesman, which I think is one of the greatest American plays ever written. (I also really like "Crucible")

Answer 7

"Death of a Salesman" by Arthur Miller is the equivalent of "Our Town " by Thorton Wilder

Answer 8

All My Sons. Hands down. Talk about powerful.

Answer 9

Somehow i feel like his short stories are much more interesting.

Answer 10

~Fore. With Marilyn Monroe.
