A View From a Bridge

I recently went to see a broadway play in the Cort Theatre on 48th St. called 'A View from the Bridge' starring Scarlett Johansson & Liev Schreiber. It's an original playwright written by Arthur Miller. The play is about Eddie Carbone played by Liev Schreiber, a Red Hook-Brooklyn dock worker who maintains a comfortable life with his wife, Beatrice & niece, Catherine(played by Scarlett Johansson). All things seem peachy until Beatrice's cousin, Marco decides to flee Italy to live & work in New York to make more money for his family in hopes to also stay with the Carbone's. Meanwhile, Eddie has a secret crush on his 17 year old niece & things get pretty interesting when Catherine falls in love with Marco's brother, Rodolpho also from Italy.
It's been a long hiatus since I've seen a Broadway play, definetly more than a decade. I think the last play I've seen was 'Crazy for You'. It's great to be back on Broadway! Check it, Check it out! A View from the Bridge that is! Scarlett Johansson & Liev Schreiber were great!
