All My Sons, Old Vic Theatre

Distinguished talents and risings stars come together in The Old Vic's All My Sons. Sally Field, Jenna Coleman, Bill Pullman and Colin Morgan star in a revival of Arthur Miller's masterful 1947 story of suburban sadness, guilt and the failure of the American dream.

With two Oscars, three Emmys, two Golden Globes and a long list of roles on film, TV and Broadway, Sally Field is a prolific American actor known globally for parts in ER, Forest Gump and Steel Magnolias. Bill Pullman is similarly accomplished, having starred in films including Sleepless in Seattle and Independence Day. Together Field and Pullman make their UK stage debuts to play Kate and Joe Keller, the couple at the centre of Miller's family drama.

British stars Jenna Coleman (Victoria, ITV) and Colin Morgan (Merlin, BBC) play the younger generation.

All My Sons is the show that kick-started Arthur Miller's illustrious career. It's now regarded as a modern classic, with two film adaptations and plenty of high profile revivals. Set in 1947 America, the story revolves around the successful Keller family. But the happy home and affluent business is rocked; first when one of the eldest sons fails to come home from the war, and then when an unexpected visitor forces them to confront blistering truths.

Family devastation clashes with public morality as the drama gives a powerful damnation of the American dream. All My Sons follows a revival of The American Clock as part of an Arthur Miller double-bill at The Old Vic.
