'Mr. Miller knows his audience... he is letting us know, the devil
will have his due.' NEW YORK TIMES When insurance agent Lyman Felt
is hospitalised following a near-fatal car crash, both of his wives
show up at his bedside and his duplicitous bigamy is revealed. As
his shocked spouses - the prim Theo and the assertive Leah - reel
from this revelation and their husband's hypocrisy, an outrageous
question is presented: is marriage actually easier this way?
Touching on themes of betrayal, crisis and reconciliation, The Ride
Down Mt. Morgan is one of Miller's more controversial works, and
was nominated for the Tony Award for Best Play in 1991. This
Methuen Drama Student Edition is edited by Thiago Russo, with
commentary and notes that explore the play's production history
(including excerpts from an interview with director David
Esbjornson) as well as the dramatic, thematic and academic debates
that surround it.
