It has been confirmed that Death of a Salesman will return to the West End in 2021. More information can be found here.
Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman returns to the West End in 2019, produced by Elliott Harper Productions, starring Sharon D Clarke and Wendell Pierce. After a sell-out run at the Young Vic, Death of a Salesman transfers to the Piccadilly Theatre from October 2019.
Miller's play is about a man who returns from an unsuccessful business trip to find his two adult sons living at the family home. Business has been tough for Willy as of late, and its takes its toll on the 69-year-old, who drifts in and out of daydreams and hallucinations throughout the play.
Directed by Marianne Elliott, whose recent triumphant production of Company in the West End opened to universally positive reviews and Miranda Cromwell as co-director, the play will be led by Wendell Pierce as Willy Loman, and Sharon D Clarke as Linda Loman.
Death of a Salesman is at the Piccadilly Theatre from 24th October, with tickets on sale now.

On stage, he has appeared in plays such as Brothers from the Bottom, Queenie, The Piano Lesson, Serious Money and The Boys of Winter. He also produces theatre, taking Bruce Norris' 2010 play Clybourne Park to Broadway where it was nominated for four Tony Awards.
Sharon D Clarke is an Olivier Award-winning actress known for her roles as Killer Queen in We Will Rock You, and Oda Mae Brown in Ghost the Musical. Recently, she won the Olivier Award for best actress in a musical for her lead performance in Caroline, or Change at the Playhouse Theatre, following previous engagements in Chichester and the Hampstead Theatre.
