A View From The Bridge.
So over the past few days I've read A View From The Bridge by Arthur Miller about 3 times over to help with one of my friend's drama revision. I read it this time last year at the end of my AS Drama course and enjoyed it then but reading it again, and again, with the accents obviously it really is a top class piece of play writing.
Even though there are essentially 5 core characters in Eddie, Beatrice, Catherine, Marco and Rodolpho, I personally think that the key to making this play truly understandable is Alfieri, he is the narrator of the play and he makes clear what is going on in each section, he also highlights the more important social and moral implications that Miller is portraying thorough the story.
Anyway, you should read it. Twice. Or more. But for me, it hasn't just been reading the play, it's also been good to have fun and spend time with a friend who is also going to university in September and also who I haven't really spent that much time with in a while.
