Overview
- The production, which opened Thursday at the Winter Garden Theatre, earned strong reviews and now runs through August 9.
- Mantello stages the play inside Willy Loman’s shifting memories, with adult and teenage versions of Biff and Happy appearing together to show time colliding.
- Chloe Lamford’s design places a red 1964 Chevy Chevelle on a stark, garage-like set, with Jack Knowles’ lighting and Caroline Shaw’s music sharpening the mood.
- Critics widely praise Nathan Lane as Willy and Laurie Metcalf as Linda, though some note the acting and effects can feel oversized or heavy-handed.
- Backed by producers Scott Rudin, Barry Diller and Roy Furman, the star-led revival adds industry heft to a canonical work that Broadway has revisited many times.
