Lauded for his critically acclaimed performance in A View from the Bridge on Broadway, Anthony LaPaglia returns to the world of Arthur Miller as Willy Loman, joined by a company of some of Australia's finest actors in one of the most profound and moving works on the pursuit of success and the post-war American Dream.
