The Southend Shakespeare Company kick off their 2015 Season in style next week with a powerful drama. Celebrating the Centenary of America's greatest playwright, the SSC are proud to present BREAKING GLASS by Arthur Miller.
Phillip and Sylvia Gellburg are a Jewish married couple living in New York in the last days of November 1938. Phillip works at a Wall Street bank, where he works on foreclosing. Sylvia suddenly becomes partially paralysed from the waist down after reading about the events of Kristallnacht, when the Nazis attacked the Jews in Germany.
Dr. Harry Hyman is contacted by Phillip to try to help Sylvia recover. He believes that her paralysis is psychosomatic, and he begins to treat her according to his diagnosis. However, throughout the play, he learns more about the problems that Sylvia is having in her personal life, particularly in her marriage.
Don't miss this dynamic drama from the masterly pen of Arthur Miller.
