A View From the Bridge
Take a box of Kleenex.
Overview
Over the years the name Eddy Carbone has come to connote tragedy. The tragic character is the epitome of selfish intentions, and he is known to the ruled by his own love and guilt. The name Carbone arrives hand-in-hand with what may be Arthur Miller’s most riveting work, A View From the Bridge.
The story of the play follows Carbone, an Italian American longshoreman who resides in Brookyln with his wife and his orphaned teenage niece Catherine. When his cousins come to stay, and one of them falls for Catherine, a secret that Eddie has been subconsciously covering for years is exposed. The once loving father figure begins to act out, committing betrayal and being consumed by his own rage.
Written by the talented author Arthur Miller, who also wrote the likes of Death of a Salesman and The Price, and directed by New Zealand’s own Susan Wilson, who you may know as Beryl from her five consecutive seasons of Gliding On and Market Forces, the play is successfully re-enacted, and promises a teary ending.
