UNCG Theatre offers audiences “A View from the Bridge” April 26-30 at Taylor Theatre. Arthur Miller’s tragedy revolves around Eddie Carbone, a longshoreman whose passion for his young niece explodes when she agrees to marry a recent immigrant.
Performances begin at 7 p.m. April 26 and 27, 8 p.m. April 28 and 29, and 2 p.m. April 30.
Tickets cost $12 for adults, $10 for children (12 and under), $10 for non-UNCG students, $10 for seniors (60 and over), $8 for UNCG Alumni Association members and $5 for UNCG students.
The cast includes Amy da Luz, Ross DeGraw, Emily Vitrano, David Harrell, Zac Campbell and David de la Garza.
“View” features scene design by Laura Brignull, costume design by Will Lowry and lighting design by Melissa Guyer. Jim Wren, a UNCG theatre professor, directs.
Wren describes Miller’s tragedy as “Theatre with a capital T.” “It is a piece with magnitude and resonance with an undeniable universality,” he said. “Although it takes place in Brooklyn in 1955, it could easily be taking place anywhere in this country today. You may explore the moral issue of the feelings beyond Eddie’s control and understanding, or the political/social issues of immigration and justice."
