Your chance to get The American Clock tickets is limited.This Arthur Miller play is coming to the Old VIc Theatre in Spring 2019
The American Clock turns, fortunes are made and lives are broken. In New York City in 1929, the stock market crashed and everything changed.
‘For them the clock would never strike midnight, the dance and the music could never stop…’
In an American society governed by race and class, we meet the Baum family as they navigate the aftermath of an unprecedented financial crisis. The world pulses with a soundtrack fusing 1920s swing and jazz with a fiercely contemporary sound, creating a backdrop that spans a vast horizon from choking high rises to rural heartlands.
Director Rachel Chavkin (Natasha, Pierre & the Great Comet of 1812, Hadestown) presents Arthur Miller’s play about hope, idealism and a nation’s unwavering faith in capitalism. Does The American Clock theme seem current to us now? More than ever probably.
Do not miss this visionnary play and book The American Clocks tickets at the Old Vic Theatre, London now!
