Dundee Rep’s production of Arthur Miller’s classic, Death of a Salesman, has claimed a host of awards at a national awards ceremony.
The production received gongs for the best ensemble, best male performance (Billy Mack) and the supreme award, best production at the Critics’ Awards for Theatre in Scotland (CATS) on Sunday.
CATS co-convener Joyce McMillan described the Rep show as “beautiful, memorable and heart-breaking”.
She said: “Dundee Rep used all the resources of its fine ensemble company to produce a beautiful, memorable and heart-breaking production of Death of a Salesman.
“The Rep used superb design and sound to set one of the 20th Century’s greatest plays in its full historical context, while always remaining fully focused on the profound and enduring human tragedy at the heart of the story.”
Joy Watters of Across the Arts, praised the performance of award-winning actor Billy Mack.
She said: “Billy Mack’s performance as Willy Loman was unforgettable.
“He movingly ran the gamut of Willy’s emotions, raging against what life has done to him, bursting into unfounded optimism and finally, heartbreakingly, the realisation that it has all been for nothing.”
The awards ceremony was held at Edinburgh’s Festival Theatre.
