This issue of the Arthur Miller Journal contains an eclectic collection of essays and performance reviews. Richard Brucher offers a comparison between All My Sons and Ibsen's John Gabriel Borkman, and Elle Shannon makes connections between After the Fall and Williams's Small Craft Warnings. In the journal's first ever essay about Miller's important short story, “I Don't Need You Any More,” Allan Chavkin takes a family systems theory approach to the tale. The performance reviews include the live broadcast of the recent London production of All My Sons, the American premiere of No Villain, a new Crucible-based play titled Becky Nurse of Salem, and stage productions of All My Sons, An Enemy of the People, and The Crucible. In addition, Stefani Koorey reviews the new essay collection, Arthur Miller for the Twenty-First Century: Contemporary Views of His Writings and Ideas.
