It is something his wife recognizes about him: “A small man can be just as exhausted as a great man,” Linda tells their two children in “Death of A Salesman.” But this is nothing Loman can admit.ĭon Draper of “Mad Men” does not have to admit to being ordinary, because he is not. Willy Loman is something no American wants to be – average.
Mad Men, the TV series to which I compared Miller’s play, ran seven seasons on AMC, from July 19, 2007, to May 17, 2015.
A day before opening night of the sixth Broadway production of Arthur Miller’s 1949 plays seems a good time to resurrect my review of the fifth production which opened on March 15th, 2012 starring Philip Seymour Hoffman and directed by Mike Nichols (both of whom died two years later.) The production won Tony Awards for best revival of a play and best director.
