Description
AUTUMN DRAMA
This autumn, St. Ambrose College theatre department presented Arthur Miller's A View from the
Bridge. The play is set in an Italian ghetto area in Brooklyn, New York. It is the story of a
longshoreman, Eddie Carbone, his family, and two illegal aliens of Italian descent. The play shows
the family unit dissolving under the impact of incest, betrayal, homosexuality, identity crisis, and
guilt. The play closes with Eddie dying from a wound to the abdomen. Perhaps this demonstrates
that death is the only resolution when modern man collides with his own flaws and limitations.
