The Old Globe is pleased to announce the addition of James Sutorius (Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf, Lincolnesque) to cast of The Price by Arthur Miller, directed by Richard Seer (All My Sons), to run in the Globe’s Arena Stage at the San Diego Museum of Art’s James S. Copley Auditorium.
May 9 – June 14. James will be replacing John Prosky in the role of “Walter Franz.” Mr. Prosky will be leaving the cast due to personal reasons.
The complete cast of The Price includes Emmy nominated actor Dominic Chianese, (Uncle Junior on the acclaimed HBO series, The Sopranos) as “Gregory Soloman”, Leisa Mather as “Esther Franz,” Andy Prosky as “Victor Franz” and James Sutorius as “Walter Franz.”
Spisto commented, “We are sorry that John Prosky will not be working on The Price, but we are pleased that Andy Prosky has decided to continue with the project, along with veteran actor Dominic Chianese, the wonderful James Sutorius and Leisa Mather.”
The Old Globe’s “Classics Up Close” series, on our second-stage, continues with this deeply moving
drama by Pulitzer Prize-winner© Arthur Miller (All My Sons, Death Of A Salesman). The Price tells the story of two brothers who reunite, after sixteen years, to sell off the remains of their family’s possessions. Along with the old furniture are memories of choices the two brothers made when their father’s fortunes crumbled. One gave up his education and became a policeman to support his ailing father, the other left his family and went on to become a successful doctor. As they try to arrive at a price with an eccentric antiques dealer, they are forced to settle up in more ways than one as each man reexamines his life and uncovers family secrets.
