Not everyone actor can play every role
"I enjoyed the show although i think Nathan Lane and Laurie Metcalf, though doing a good job were both miscast.
I loved the set, music, most of the direction
Also, the brothers, especially Biff. "

Metcalf was the hub
"Laurie Metcalf provided a superb performance as others seemed miscast or misdirected, The interpretation of Willie Loman as more mentally disturbed than society's victim (drunk on the American hype dream, foolishly self-deceiving but betrayed by capitalism, boss & sons) was a mistake.
The car focus was impressive but it looked like a 1960s car - so the desolate set lacked a feeling of place or time.
Nathan Lane & Chris Abbott worked hard but no one seemed quite 'present' in a simple & true way. Too much shouting."

Very depressing
"Acting was terrific but the story is depressing. A family of lazy, self absorbed, racist men - what we would call low lifes where I'm from. The best part was the end. Couldn't wait to get out.
And I hate that the theatre allows standing behind the last row V - so creepy to have someone hovering over me. "

As good as You'll ever see on Broadway
"The intensity of the theme, plot, and dialog combined with world class actors is superior even by Broadway Standards.
A performance whose plot is inherently depressing, yet ends with a heartfelt standing ovation! DO NOT MISS!"

Aiming at the Wrong Target
"The Death of a Salesman is a critique of The American Dream. Namely, that hard work and playing by the rules leads to success. Yet Willy Loman's version of TAD is quite different. He believes success comes from being liked.
Arthur Miller has set up a straw man. His play is about a delusional man's version of TAD. As such it looses much of its sting as a social criticism.
In addition, at three hours, I found my mind wondering. Loman's often repeated delusions don't help. Still some of the writing is brilliant. The play is regarded as a classic and, "Attention must be paid."

A classic but heavy going and dated
"We were excited to see this classic but didn’t feel it was worth $200 per ticket by far. Just felt dated and predictable. Acting and production was excellent. "

Did not keep me engaged
"I cannot believe that this show received any Tonys at all - It was not engaging or entertaining at all. The theater was quite noisy from outside sirens and other distracting noise..."

Left at intermission
"I found the show’s set distracting. I admire Mr. Lane and applaud his tackling this particular American classic, but, no….this was just not for him. I wasn’t thrilled, and maybe confused, by the actors portraying the sons, with their interpretations. Saving grace was Laurie Metcalf who woke me up . As much as I found Ms Metcalf the best part, that wasn’t enough to keep me from leaving at intermission.
