Death of a Playwright

Arthur Miller died last night. The web is full of the typical tribute/obit stuff. His work has always had a profound impact on me, with each viewing or reading.

I worked with three of his scripts during my time as a theater major at Wesleyan. All My Sons and Death of a Salesman in acting classes, and on Karl Sikkenga's production of The Crucible.

I really don't have much to add that isn't already being said all over the 'net.

after the closing lines
and after the curtain call
the curtain falls
on empty chairs...
