I'm saying there's someone who could stop this madness. If you stood up, and said 'no'.
On a rainswept afternoon in 1952, Hollywood and Broadway's leading director, Elia Kazan met his closest collaborator, the playwright Arthur Miller. As the anti-communist crusade of McCarthyism blacklisted hundreds of their colleagues, Kazan and Miller faced a stark choice. Should they betray their friends, or risk never working again?
David Edgar's illustrious career includes multi award-winning plays for the RSC and National Theatre. His compelling new drama imagines a confrontation between two giants of stage and screen, both passionately involved with an actress about to become the most famous movie star in the world. It is directed by James Dacre, former Artistic Director of the Royal & Derngate Theatres, Northampton.
