By Arthur Miller
Presented by University of Oxford student company Labyrinth Productions
Directed by Rosie Morgan-Males
Brooklyn’s docks. 1950s America. A man on the edge. Arthur Miller’s A View from the Bridge is a simmering tragedy of justice, masculinity, and control.
This award-winning play follows Eddie Carbone, a Brooklyn longshoreman whose world unravels when his wife’s Italian cousins arrive illegally. As his niece Catherine falls for the charming Rodolpho, Eddie’s protectiveness turns possessive. Bound by law yet powerless to stop the tragedy, Italian American lawyer Alfieri watches as personal obsession collides with cultural code in a slow march toward destruction.
University of Oxford student company Labyrinth Productions presents a bold new staging of Miller’s classic, featuring striking visuals, dramatic lighting, an original score, and live orchestra. A sharp, geometric design foregrounds the emotional core of the story—making it feel immediate, human, and fiercely relevant today.
The tension is palpable. The atmosphere claustrophobic yet captivating.
Look closely - things are unravelling.
