(RED BANK, NJ) — There's something wonderful about seeing an Arthur Miller play performed on stage. I don't think any playwright ever connected with families and the internal drama within family relations like Miller did. One such example is The Price, which Two River Theater is presenting through June 29, 2025. It's a play rarely performed in the area, but the production directed by Brandon J. Dirden is highly recommended and furthers the powerful theme that runs through so many of Miller's works.
