Winner of the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Play, All My Sons first introduced the themes that run through Miller’s work as a whole: the relationships between fathers and sons, and the conflict between business ethics and personal morality.

During World War II Joe Keller and Herbert Deever were partners in a machine shop making airplane parts. Deever was sent to prison because the firm turned out defective parts, causing the deaths of many men. Keller escaped punishment and became a wealthy man. The twin shadows of this catastrophe and the fact that the young Keller son was reported missing during the war dominate the action. The love affair of Chris Keller and Ann Deever, the bitterness of George Deever returned from the war to find his father in prison and his father's partner free, are all set in a structure of almost unbearable power. The climax showing the reaction of a son to his father’s indiscretion is a fitting conclusion to a play electrifying in its intensity.

Prepare a one-two minute contemporary monologue, Non-AEA.

Role # 1 - Joe Keller

Seeking 1 talent(s) for this role
Joe Keller (nearing 60) – "A heavy man of stolid mind and build, a business man these many years, but with the imprint of a machine-shop worker and boss still upon him. When he reads, speaks, and listens, it is with the terrible concentration of the uneducated man for whom there is still wonder in many commonly known things, a man whose judgments must be dredged out of experience and a peasant-like common sense. A man among men." Joe is married to Kate, and is the father of Chris and Larry. Due to manufacturing faulty airplane parts that led to the deaths of many American soldiers, his ex-business partner Steve Deever is in jail, but he was exonerated.
