THE PRICE-ARTHUR MILLER

Victor, a New York cop nearing retirement, moves among furniture in the  disused attic of a house marked for demolition. Cabinets, desks, a  damaged harp, an overstuffed armchair – the relics of a lost life of  affluence he’s finally come to sell. But when his brother Walter, who he  hasn’t spoken to in years, arrives, the talk stops being just about  whether Victor’s been offered a fair price for the furniture, and turns  to the price that one and not the other of them paid when their father  lost both his fortune and the will to go on … Fraught, but cut through with humour, The Price is one of Arthur Miller’s finest plays.
