view in the play is from the Brooklyn Bridge into the home and
life and longshoreman Eddie Carbone, his wife, Beatrice, and his
niece, Catherine. Eddie's life takes turn when his wife's two
cousins come to live with the Carbones. Entering the country
illegally, the cousins need to hide from the immigration
authorities. When one of them takes a liking to Catherine, Eddie's
world begins to unravel.
ISays
director Bob Falk, "I'm doing the play because I think it's
one of Miller's best, after [Death of a] Salesman. And I saw a
great production of it in 1968, which I will always remember.
Finally, I think it is one of those Miller plays that is
accessible to student actors." The 17-member cast features Kyle Thatcher (Easton) as Eddie, Tara Oakley (Andover, N.J.) as Beatrice, Destiny Zeiders (Mifflintown) as Catherine, Frank Lombardo (Yatesville) as Marco, Ricky Vitanovec (Tamaqua) as Rodolpho and Matt Zarzyczny (Williamsport) as Alfieri. Tickets are $10 and are available from the Mary L. Welch Theatre box office by calling (570) 321-4048, Monday-Friday, from 10:00 to 3:00 p.m |
