[NEohioPAL] Lakeland's Death of a Salesman: Final Weekend

[Martin Friedman]

“…the acting in this production is consistently superior, even in the smaller roles. As Willy, Mark Cipra fully embodies his slowly collapsing character, slipping easily from delight to rage with his sons…”

 “At once explosive and angry, weary and depressed, Cipra captures the psychology of someone in physical and emotional meltdown, struggling to hold on while he deteriorates mentally and contemplates suicide.”
“As Linda Loman, Maryanne Elder personifies the long-suffering wife who worries over her husband, loving, babying and protecting him, even when Willy treats her with contempt.”
“Christopher Richards triumphs as the troubled Biff Loman, a drifter and habitual thief. Biff is the only one in the family who frees himself from the shackles of self-delusion that enslave his younger brother Happy (a carbon copy of Willy) and his father.”

“Cipra and Richards fully convey the volatile relationship between Willy and Biff. Watchthe alteration in Biff’s face, from innocence to physical repugnance, upon realizing his father’s infidelity and during the tearful confrontation when father and son make final amends – both are shattering emotional highs of the production.”
