American classical play enthralls Hanoians

On May 26, Hanoians will have an opportunity to enjoy the play “All My Sons” by American playwright Arthur Miller, at the Hanoi Opera House for free.

All My Sons told about a family tragedy of Joe Keller – a director of a workshop that manufactures aero engine parts. In order to turn a profit,  Keller delivers poor quality products, leading to deaths of several pilots. However, he blamed all the problems on his friends.
With the participation of popular artists like Le Khanh, Si Tien, Quang Anh, Nguyet Hang and Thu Trang, the play aims to commemorate American playwright Arthur Miller’s 100th birthday.

 
It also celebrates the 20th anniversary of Vietnam-US diplomatic ties. The event has continued to receive funding from the US Embassy in Vietnam.
The play will be performed in Yen Bai, Tuyen Quang, Thai Nguyen and other Hanoi art schools through June.
All My Sons made its first debut in Hanoi and Hai Phong under the direction of Neil Simon Fleckman in 2011 as part of a cooperative project between the US Embassy in Vietnam, and the Youth Theatre.
