Theater enthusiasts are in for a treat as Death of a Salesman, Arthur Miller’s iconic drama, returns for a revival run at the Sejong Center’s M Theater from January 7 to March 3, 2025. The production is helmed by Show and Tell Play and T2N Media, promising a fresh yet faithful rendition of this enduring masterpiece.
First performed on Broadway in 1949, Death of a Salesman is widely regarded as one of the most significant plays in modern theater. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, the Tony Award for Best Play, and the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award, the play delves into the life of Willy Loman, an aging salesman grappling with the harsh realities of the Great Depression. Through Loman’s unraveling relationships and disillusionment with the American Dream, the play exposes the fragility of human aspirations and the deeper truths about family and self-worth.
The 2025 production boasts a stellar cast, including Park Geun Hyung and Son Byung Ho alternating as Willy Loman, and Son Sook and Ye Soo Jung portraying Linda Loman. Supporting roles include Lee Sang Yoon and Park Eun Seok as Biff Loman, Kim Bo Hyun and Go Sang Ho as Happy Loman, with other notable performances from Lee Nam Hee, Park Yoon Hee, Park Min Gwan, and Kim Yoo Jin, among others. The diverse and seasoned ensemble promises to breathe life into Miller’s emotionally charged characters.
Directed by Kim Jae Yeop, a multi-award-winning figure in the theater community, this production aims to engage audiences with innovative interpretations while remaining true to the original narrative’s profound themes. Known for his unique ability to connect with contemporary audiences, Kim’s approach ensures the play’s enduring relevance.
A representative from the production company expressed confidence in the show’s impact: “With an extraordinary cast led by veterans like Park Geun Hyung, we’re bringing a production that resonates deeply and leaves a lasting impression. Following the success of the 2023 premiere, we are thrilled to once again exceed audience expectations.”
Death of a Salesman continues to hold a mirror to society, reflecting universal struggles and the quest for meaning in an increasingly complex world. The 2025 revival serves as a reminder of the play’s timeless resonance and its capacity to evoke both introspection and empathy.
Tickets for the production will be available soon, with further details accessible through official Sejong Center channels.
