The upcoming Broadway revival of Arthur Miller's Pulitzer- and Tony-winning play Death of a Salesman has found additional casting, with the new roster to join previously announced stars Nathan Lane, Laurie Metcalf, Christopher Abbott, and Ben Ahlers when performances start March 6 at the Winter Garden Theatre. Opening night will be April 9, with Joe Mantello at the helm.
Lane will star as Willy Loman, with Metcalf as Linda Loman, Abbott as Biff Loman, and Ahlers as Happy Loman.
Newly revealed to be joining them are K. Todd Freeman as Charley, Jonathan Cake as Ben Loman, John Drea as Howard, Michael Benjamin Washington as Bernard, Tasha Lawrence as The Woman, and Jake Silbermann as Stanley, along with Joaquin Consuelos, Jake Termine, Karl Green, and Jack Falahee.
The staging will feature scenic design by Chloe Lamford, costume design by Rudy Mance, lighting design by Jack Knowles, and sound design by Mikaal Sulaiman.
Scott Rudin and Barry Diller are producing, the duo's sophomore outing after Rudin's controversial return to the industry following allegations of abusive treatment to subordinates.
The work, which explores the dark realities of the so-called "American Dream" for the middle class of the mid-century, premiered on Broadway in 1949, winning the Pulitzer and Tony and becoming a near instant stage classic. The play has since been revived on Broadway five times with various stars taking on the ill-fated Willy Loman, including George C. Scott, Dustin Hoffman, Brian Dennehy, Philip Seymour Hoffman, and Wendell Pierce.
