Even having inklings of what to expect, there was no protecting myself from the shattering production of Arthur Miller's A View From the Bridge at the Kennedy Center. I don't think even wearing a Kevlar vest could have reduced the immobilizing final impact of the two-time 2016 Tony Award–winning production of Miller's A View From the Bridge.
Directed by Ivo Van Hove, A View From the Bridge is a primal, tragic, operatic journey that freshly illuminates dark places for a play first staged in the mid-1950's. (And it's context of illegal immigrants coming to America for jobs and a better life were certainly not lost of me, given the recent elections.)
