He generally directs at least one show a year for The Rep, Point Park University's professional theater company.
Over the years, Miller has directed The Rep's productions of “Death of a Salesman,” “All My Sons” and “The View From the Bridge,” all of which were written by his father, Arthur Miller. He's also helmed world premieres of “The Umbrella Man,” “A Child's Guide to Heresy” and Tom Stoppard's “The Real Thing.”

I totally agree with Miller in seeing the heroism in the two men, and I don't think that the Malcovich version did the two characters justice. In fact in that movie version the characters were far more two dimensional than they were painted in the stories. That is such a shame because the two men really help to carry the beauty and sadness of the story. I wish this article was more of an interview wit Miller and would explain his vision for his version of the play as well as how it further differs from previous versions. This article also makes me curious as to what the director has inn mind for the production design and what the designers ended up doing for the play. The designs say SO much about the direction of the play; I hope that the designers go further with this design that any I have seen or heard of because it is such a beautiful simple story, translating that into an appropriate, yet different design is a real challenge.
