By Eleanor Burgess

You may think you already know their story. You’d be wrong. What would’ve happened if the housewife from a classic American drama (that you definitely read in high school) confronted the woman who was sleeping with her husband? With sharp dialogue and spirited debate, acclaimed playwright Eleanor Burgess brings a fresh perspective on the timeless themes of marriage, duty, and happiness in Wife of a Salesman. As new life is breathed into these timeless characters, we discover the ways the world has, and hasn’t, changed across generations.

Called “so smart” and “highly recommended” by the Chicago Sun Times and “a modern masterpiece full of stimulating themes” by BroadwayWorld, you won’t want to miss this thrilling and timely look at womanhood and the choices we make.
