It has been announced that Bryan Cranston, Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Paapa Essiedu will star in Arthur Miller’s ALL MY SONS, directed by Ivo Van Hove, at London’s Wyndham’s Theatre from 14 November 2025-7 February 2026.
ALL MY SONS reunites Bryan Cranston with director Ivo Van Hove following their critically acclaimed production of Network, which premiered at the National Theatre in 2017 before transferring to Broadway. For his performance as Howard Beale in the show, Bryan won both the Olivier Award and Tony Award for Best Actor.
ALL MY SONS marks the third Arthur Miller play for Ivo Van Hove, having previously directed A View from the Bridge with Mark Strong and Nicola Walker at the Young Vic, in the West End in 2014 and on Broadway in 2015 and The Crucible with Ben Whishaw, Sophie Okonedo and Saoirse Ronan on Broadway in 2016.
Ivo Van Hove said: "I am thrilled to return to the West End to direct ALL MY SONS and to reunite with the great Bryan Cranston. It is also a privilege to collaborate with the brilliant Marianne Jean-Baptiste and Paapa Essiedu, whose work I have long admired. We all share a deep reverence for Arthur Miller’s powerful storytelling, and bringing this profound play to life with such an extraordinary cast is truly a dream come true. ALL MY SONS is a devastating exploration of guilt, responsibility, and the far-reaching consequences of our choices, especially in times of war. Its themes of personal integrity and moral reckoning remain as urgent and resonant today as ever."
Bryan Cranston said: “Arthur Miller, Ivo Van Hove, Marianne Jean-Baptiste, Paapa Essiedu…If there is something that I know beyond a shadow of doubt, is to surround yourself with the most talented people. This group of creative artists has got me so excited to be a part of the ALL MY SONS company.”
Arthur Miller’s ALL MY SONS is his first and most abiding hit play. Respected, self-made businessman Joe prides himself on providing for his wife and their two sons. While wartime delivers profits for the family, it comes at a price when his partner is charged with criminal manufacturing deals, and his eldest son goes missing in action. Peacetime brings little peace of mind as Joe’s true involvement in the activity begins to surface, and he is suddenly confronted by the consequences of his actions. Arthur Miller skewers the dishonest promise of the American Dream in this disturbingly prescient play.
ALL MY SONS will have set and lighting design by Jan Versweyveld, costumes by An D’Huys, sound by Tom Gibbons, and casting by Julia Horan CDG.
Further casting will be announced soon.
Tickets for ALL MY SONS go on sale today (10 April) at 12pm noon, with further info here.
