Death of a Salesman follows the trials of Willy Loman the quintessential American tragic hero. The original production was directed by Elia Kazan starred Lee J. Cobb and ran for 742 performances. The role of Loman has also been played by such luminaries as George C. Scott Brian Dennehy and Philip Seymour Hoffman.

From every point of view "Death of a Salesman" which was acted at the Morosco last evening is a rich and memorable drama. It is so simple in style and so inevitable in theme that it scarcely seems like a thing that has been written and acted" Contemporary New York Times review. Fine in Near Fine dust jacket.
