Two River Reveals Curated Events and Expanded Accessibility Services for THE PRICE

Two River Theater has revealed free curated events and accessibility services in conjunction with The Price by Arthur Miller (Death of A Salesman, The Crucible), directed by Brandon J. Dirden (August Wilson’s Radio Golf, Wine in the Wilderness). This American Classic will run in the Joan and Robert Rechnitz Theater, June 7 - 29, 2025.
 
“Arthur Miller.  Brandon Dirden.  A pairing of titans,” says Artistic Director Justin Waldman. “This is the type of artistic matchmaking that thrills me to no end. One of the greatest American dramatists to ever put pen to paper meets an exquisite theatrical maker and thinker at the height of his powers. To have Two River favorite Dirden wrestle with Miller’s volcanic sibling rivalry is the stuff of dreams.”

The full event lineup includes:

Community Closet

Sunday, June 29    10:00AM         Two River Theater Lobby
Two River Theater's first Community Closet event lifts up hands-on advocacy, kindness and...community! The event begins with a month-long drive for items desperately needed by our local nonprofit partners for the families they serve: clothing, paper goods, toiletries, school supplies and canned food. On June 29, we will host these families and partners in our lobby, providing them with the opportunity to collect these items for free. We will then provide them with a private lunch, and then host them at our final performance of Arthur Miller's THE PRICE.
