The production of Arthur Millers by the Harbor Stage Company Death of a seller proves that great theater does not require expensive sets or extensive occupation lists, only exceptional performance. The show is thoughtfully difficult, touches topics of disillusionment and betrayal and extremely relevant, since the American dream is still redefined. While the occupation for this story of an American seller who loses the American dream consists of only four characters, this deepens the audience connection to the piece by enables deeply intimate and powerful scenes. Set designers showed a great ingenuity because the prop list could easily fit into a post-IT note that is very impressive for a lasting show that is very impressive for over two hours. Creative solutions were in full effect to bring Willy Loman's dynamic and complex narrative into life: use of stage walls to project pre -drawn actors in scenes; Requisites as multi -purpose instruments to guide history; As well as voice-over to give the audience a window into the tortured protagonists, the reality distorted.

But it was up to the actors to invite the audience into this world. The acting, when your scene partner is projected onto the wall, is certainly not an easy task, but William Zielinski, who portrays Willy Loman, looks like a walk in the park. Zielinski not only demonstrates excellent memoranders and timing skills, but also a deep understanding and a profound connection to his character. Everything he does on stage is a tactful technique to keep the audience into the world in which Willy Loman inhabits. Willy's wife Linda Loman, played by Stacy Fischer, and two sons, Happy and Biff Loman, played by Jack Aschenbach and Alex Pollock, contextualize the manic behavior of their patriarchs. Fischer does an equipment that the audience invites you to participate in the frustrations and pain of their character. It seems to use high hopes and disappointments of decades of housewives for decades, whose entire life was lived by her husbands and sons. Aschenbach and Pollock follow the footsteps of their fictional family with equally passionate and stubborn performances, in which the audience questions the legitimacy of the American dream.

With the Harbor Stage Company, every seat could be the best seat in the house. The small event location gives the audience a unique charming and intimate theater experience. Located on the water, guests can enjoy their break and watch the sunset over the harbor. In view of the strong scenes shown during this production, it is a perfect view that you can think about.
