All My Sons

ll My Sons is Arthur Miller s compelling story of forbidden love, loyalty, guilt and the corrupting power of greed.

In All My Sons, Joe Keller is alleged to have supplied World War II fighter planes with defective engines, leading to the deaths ofinnocent pilots, a crime for which his business partner took the fall. One of Keller's sons, himself a pilot, is thought to have been killed in action. His mother can't accept his death and equally can't accept that her dead son's fianc e has transferred her affections to her other son. The confrontations that ensue lead to the uncovering of a world-shaking family secret.

David Suchet, who plays Joe Keller in All My Sons, is probably best known for his screen performances as Belgian detective Hercule Poirot, a role he has played for two decades. Zoe Wanamaker, who plays his wife, is also best known for reoccurring screen performances in the Harry Potter films and in long running BBC sitcom My Family.

Arthur Miller’s All My Sons

Arthur Miller’s ‘All My Sons’ returns to London in 2010 with a star-studded cast, featuring David Suchet and Zoe Wanamaker.

 

David Suchet, best known for his TV portrayal of Hercule Poirot, plays Joe Keller, an American businessman who sold faulty aircraft parts to the government during the Second World War. Zoe Wanamaker, of ‘Harry Potter’ and ‘My Family’ fame, plays Joe’s wife Kate Keller, a woman who refuses to accept that her eldest son, a pilot, has been killed in action. The arrival of Ann Deever, the daughter of Joe’s jailed business partner Steve, raises the tension in the Keller household. 

 

After his debut play had closed after only four Broadway performances, ‘All My Sons’ was Arthur Miller’s first big commercial success. Written and set in the years immediately after the Second World War ‘All My Sons’ is based around the real story of a businessman who sold damaged parts to the US Air Force during the conflict.
