The Young Vic's critically-acclaimed production of Arthur Miller's A View from the Bridge, directed by Ivo van Hove, opens tonight at the Lyceum Theatre (149 West 45th Street). It will play an 18-week limited engagement through Sunday, February 21, 2016.

The Young Vic production of A View from the Bridge premiered in April 2014 to ecstatic reviews, instantly sold out its initial engagement, and subsequently transferred to London's West End where it recently concluded another completely sold-out run. This production, which marks the Broadway debut of critically-acclaimed director Ivo van Hove, is being presented during playwright Arthur Miller's Centenary.

Just in time for opening night, BroadwayWorld invites you to meet the company!
