Pittsburgh Public Theater

This essential Arthur Miller drama tells the story of Victor and Walter Franz, brothers who haven't spoken to one another in 16 years.   We meet them in 1968 in their late father's Manhattan brownstone, which is set to be torn down.  The Franz brothers, along with Victor's wife, Esther, are facing each other again to clear the attic and, perhaps, clear the air of a lifetime's worth of baggage.  There to help them sort through the remnants is a near 90-year-old antiques dealer who brings wit and wisdom to the proceedings. 

 "One of the most entertaining plays that Miller has ever written."  - The New York Times
