"This was an astonishingly brilliant interpretation of the play, with a superb ensemble and creative, effective staging. I was deeply moved. "
"Powerful- especially meaningful. Much depth into the Afro-American experience."
"Very powerful. Captured the chaos, hopelessness, and wild desperate love that Miller wished for the play to portray. Good lighting effects and set design. True art!"
"Extremely powerful, especially the second half after intermission. Very intrigued by Ben's character and the new meaning of going to Africa that comes to light in with a Black Loman family. "
"Excellent. Arthur Miller would be pleased with the production."
"It was exciting, eye opening, well staged, and compelling with excellent performances, especially by Linda. Not only was the performance a hit, it changed the way I saw the play (for I am the daughter of a one-time traveling salesman). The performance was full of integrity."
"I was moved, really, truly moved. At this point I'm still reeling, so I don't think I could put it into so many words. A beautifully done interpretation of this play; I don't think Ill be able to think of the play without thinking of this particular production. Congratulations!"
"It's really great and very different from other performances. I love the use of the Jazz throughout."
"Fabulous work. Ground breaking. Courageous."
"This play was outstanding. Everyone in the cast was excellent. The story of Willie Loman was spellbinding..."
"The performance was great! The acting was excellent. Everyone played their character to the fullest. Justin and Avery have great chemistry between them. "
"I felt that the African American direction filled the piece in a way seamless. I thought the play was originally intended to portray the struggles of African American life. Corollaries of Africa, returning home to a more suitable paradigm, and various themes of freedom and achievement molded themselves seamlessly into the fabric of the play."
"It was one of the best performances I've seen in my life. The quality of the acting, directing, and design were phenomenal..."
Thoroughly enjoyable, riveting performance. Brooks is outstanding as always.
"I'm very impressed with the professional production. I used to watch Brooks long ago."
"Amazing! Almost cried multiple times. Kind of depressing though when seeing slight parallels with own life. Nonetheless, one of my favorite stage performances ever witnessed..."
"I'm moved, and in awe of Avery Brooks."
"I loved it! Avery Brooks brought such life to the character. Everyone was impressive."
"I was moved by the extraordinary acting and unique take on the play. Bravo!"
"These actors were FEARLESS, fully present in character, while the play took them painfully and daringly into delusions, flaws, and tragedy with love. Absolutely amazing. We could barely speak afterward."
"I am extremely happy that I came to the play. The acting, producing, and directing were phenomenal. Thank you very much and congrats to Justin."
"I am wiped out. It was very deep, very American, very profound."
"Absolutely blown away. The acting was amazing and overwhelming. I was totally engrossed and emotionally moved."
"Most powerful theater experience. Astonishing and beautiful. Words fail me miserably..."
"It was the most emotionally moving, heart wrenching experience for me in the past four years of my life. Amazing."
"This is marvelous! (I'm writing during intermission!) Beautifully adapted. Powerful. Superb acting, direction, stage, lighting and so on. Everyone should see this! It works perfectly! Please pursue further productions of this- record it for PBS! Simply outstanding!"
