Salesman,” which centers on issues ‘that we are dealing with as a society today.’
African-American Shakespeare Company artistic director L. Peter Callender stars as Willy Loman in the company’s new production of “Death of a Salesman.”
AASC’s motto is “envisioning the classics with color,” and its “Salesman” reimagines the Lomans as a multiracial family in the 1950s of an African-American husband and Latina wife. “I’m just having so much fun being back in the Bay Area,” Lange says. “I did ‘Romeo and Juliet’ in 1967 in San Francisco, on Bush and Gough at the Episcopal Church there. They had a little chapel, and we built that chapel into a theater. So it’s like I’m coming home.”
In 2021, Lange directed Callender in American Stage’s streaming production of “Satchmo at the Waldorf,” Terry Teachout’s one-man show about Louis Armstrong. This February they reunited for an onstage production of “Satchmo” at San Jose Stage Company when a planned production of Callender’s own play “Strange Courtesies” was postponed.
