Love Creek Productions continues its 25th Anniversary Season by presenting the play that established Arthur Miller as one of America’s foremost playwrights. Based on a true story and set shortly after World War II, All My Sons is about love, honor, integrity, and the consequences of a clash between morality and war. All My Sons looks at how far one will go to achieve material comfort and an improved social status through hard work and determination. The play in essence presents the darker path of the drive to achieve the American Dream and the greed of wartime profiteering. With today’s national headlines of the wars in Iraqand Afghanistan, executives and financial officers of major corporations behind bars, and the financial collapse, All My Sons has a contemporary relevance for American audiences of today. All My Sons shows us how an everyday “Joe” sacrifices his integrity for materialism, and how he confronts his morality in the face of desperation and parental responsibility.
