Brooklyn-based theatre company, Brave New World Repertory Theatre (BNW) will present Arthur Miller’s dark and passionate classic drama, A View From The Bridge at the Waterfront Barge Museum in Red Hook, where the play is set.
A View From The Bridge follows a longshoreman named Eddie Carbone who lives and works in Red Hook with his wife Beatrice and their orphaned niece Catherine in the 1950s. When Beatrice’s undocumented relatives arrive from Italy to work the docks, conflict grows between Eddie and cousin Rodolpho.
Claire Beckman, BNW’s co-founder and producing artistic director — also playing Beatrice — told Broadway World that this Brooklyn production is timely.
“Eddie Carbone is a flawed Everyman like most of Miller’s leading men, but he is also xenophobic, homophobic, patriarchal, white and working class,” Beckman told the publication. “He does his fair share of ‘mansplaining,’ while he struggles with inappropriate feelings for his 17 year-old niece. He checks every box for the tragically flawed American Male in 2018.”
Undoubtedly, levitra 40 mg purchased this was an effective solution of ED, still, many of the ED patients were deprived of the treatment.
A View From The Bridge last showed on Broadway in 2016 to rave reviews and was nominated for five TONY awards including Best Revival of a Play.
BNW won acclaim with the production of  To Kill A Mockingbird staged on the front porches of Victorian Flatbush in 2005. Their immersive production, with the audience just a few steps away, is said “to strike a particular note of astonishment at the way in which, and the reasons for which, a man will endanger and risk and lose his very life.”
A preview of the show will play on Thursday, May 31, with the official production to run from Friday, June 1 to Sunday, June 24. For more information and tickets visit here.
