In London this past season, there was one show that everyone was talking about. The Young Vic production of A VIEW FROM THE BRIDGE premiered in April 2014 to ecstatic reviews and instantly sold out its initial engagement. The production subsequently transferred to London's West End for another completely sold-out run. It won the 2015 Olivier Awards for Best Revival, Best Actor and Best Director. It was named the top theater pick of the year by The Evening Standard, The Guardian and The Independent. The Times called it "one of the great theatrical productions of the decade."
The Financial Times called it "superb, searing and triumphant." Time Out wrote, "To say visionary director Ivo van Hove's production is the best show in London is like saying Stonehenge is the current best rock arrangement in Wiltshire; it almost feels silly to compare this pure, primal, colossal thing with anything else on the stage."
The visionary director, Olivier winner Ivo van Hove, will be making his Broadway debut. The stellar cast will be led by Mark Strong (The Imitation Game; Tinker, Tailor, Soldier, Spy), who won the Olivier Award for his portrayal of Eddie Carbone in Miller's dark and passionate classic drama set on the Brooklyn waterfront.

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR A View from the Bridge
Revival of Arthur Miller’s ‘View from the Bridge’ is a hit at the Lyceum Theatre
9 / 10
In a bright stroke, the director dreams up a wordless prologue. Eddie and coworker Alfieri (Michael Gould) wash up after a day on the docks. But the point of the drama is that nobody comes out clean. 'Whatever happened,' says Bea, 'we all done it.' Van Hove sees to it that everyone's dripping in guilt.
'A View From the Bridge' review: Mark Stong in Ivo van Hove's divisive revival
5 / 10
Hove takes a scalpel-edged, stripped-down yet over-the-top approach that drains the play of its naturalistic flavor...But what really hurts the two-hour production is Hove's never-ending use of an unsettling, dirge-like soundscape, which interrupts the dialogue and is often disconnected from the storytelling. It is most effective at the play's brutal climax, which also contains a splashy visual feat. Mark Strong conveys Eddie's inner torment with a quiet intensity...For the record, this production received big raves in London, and I'm sure that many people here will be similarly turned on by it. But by the same token, I suspect that plenty of others will find it pretentious and obnoxious.
