All My Sons

All My Sons description

A new production of All My Sons is on stage in the West End at Wyndhams Theatre. This time around it stars Olivier and Tony Award-winning Bryan Cranston (The Studio, Argo, Breaking Bad) as businessman Joe Keller, Marianne Jean-Baptiste (Hard Truths, The Amen Corner) as Kate Keller and Paapa Essiedu (Black Doves, I May Destroy You, Death of England: Delroy) as their son Chris. Direction comes from the visionary Tony and Olivier Award-winner Ivo van Hove (A Little Life).

Roll back time to the Second World War. Joe is a self-made success whose business turns a very healthy profit during the Second World War. Then his own son goes missing in action. After the war Joe's business partner is caught out, having sold dodgy aircraft parts that caused 21 young pilots to die. In this powerful classic tale of guilt, accountability and morality, Joe's involvement become clear and he's forced to confront the consequences of his actions. Is the infamous 'American Dream' all it is cracked up to be?
