'The Ride Down Mt. Morgan' is a play about the unbridled excesses of the 1980s, in which a car crash at the bottom of Mt. Morgan leaves insurance tycoon Lynman Felt hospitalized and unable to run from his converging secrets. Once prim wife Theo meets Leah, Lynman's younger more ambitious wife, Lynman is stuck justifying himself and his over-reaching appetites. "Any new play by Arthur Miller is an important event in American culture. One as theatrically bold and intellectually subtle as 'The Ride Down Mt. Morgan' is reason to shout for joy" (Time).
