[Capdist-announce] ALL MY SONS by Arthur Miller - virtual staged-reading on Saturday June 6th

[Stephen Sanborn]

          ". a tense & intriguing drama comes to Copake with The Two Of Us
Productions! "


 

COPAKE, NY --The Two Of Us Productions, the award winning theater company
based in Columbia County NY, is pleased to present ALL MY SONS by Arthur
Miller on Saturday evening June 6th 2020 as Virtual On-Line staged reading
starting at 7pm.  

During the war Joe Keller and Herbert Deever ran a machine shop which made
aircraft engine parts.  Deever was sent to prison because the firm turned
out defective engine parts, causing the deaths of many military pilots.
Keller went free and made a lot of money.  The twin shadows of this
catastrophe and the fact that the young Keller son was reported missing
during the war dominate the action.  The love affair of Chris Keller and Ann
Deever, the bitterness of George Deever returned from the war to find his
father in prison and his father's partner free, are all set in a structure
of almost unbearable power.  The climax showing the reaction of a son to his
guilty father is fitting conclusion to a play electrifying in its intensity!
