PROJECT AUDION 80 – LUX Radio Theatre (Australia): Death of a Salesman Death of a Salesman is one of the classic America plays: the first to win both the Tony Award for Best Author, the New York Drama Circle Critics' Award, and the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Arthur Miller's intense family drama might have seemed promising material for a prestige radio adaptation, but perhaps it was too intense for American radio networks. However, Australia's radio stations had no such nervousness. The Down-Under edition of Lux Radio Theatre presented their adaptation on January 29, 1956, using two of the lead actors who originally premiered it in Australia. Now, even as a new production arrives on Broadway, Audion brings forth the Lux adaptation for Project Audion's virtual airwaves: a story of the American Dream gone wrong, and the devastating effects it has on Willy Loman and his family. Still vital, after all these decades. Our big, widespread cast: Les Marsden (Willy) in California Laura Mirsky (Linda) in New Jersey Pete Lutz (Biff) in Texas Dana Gonsalves (Hap) in Texas Paul Arbisi (Charley) in Illinois Nick Wommack (Bernard/Lux Spokesman) in Texas Rhiannon McAfee (Lux Spokeswoman/Mai Zetterling) in California Patte Rosebank (Narrator/Miss Frances) in Toronto, Canada David Ian (Howard/Paul Jacklin) in Oregon Tom Konkle (Announcer) in California Original music was by Ross Bernhardt Transcribed and Directed by Pete Lutz Production was supervised by Larry Groebe (who also played Stanley)
