3 Oct 8 pm “The Man Who Had All the Luck” by Arthur Miller. While those around him suffer everyday failures from redundancy to infertility, David Beeves is blessed with good fortune and continues to prosper. Yet, the more success David achieves, the more guilty, depressed and paranoid he feels about the plight of those around him. Soon he begins to wonder what will happen when his luck runs out… Nationally renowned Sell A Door Theatre Company, in association with the acclaimed Mull Theatre, tour Miller’s rarely-performed gem across the UK for the first time.
