Very moving. I read DoaS when I was 12 and it was sort of the inciting incident of my life, I did not want to be Biff Lohman and I immediately started to focus on how I would one day support a family. This performance brought back those memories and connected. Like the others said, often its portrayed hysterically which does not fit at all. Nice work.

i LIVE FOR THIS ACTING

You have a perfect raspy voice for this, besides the accent, but the like crooner trans Atlantic inflection.

Ally Roenfeldt The bit of Boston in there is great too. Voice reminds me a bit of DiCaprio in Shutter Island

This is a really good rendition. Great job!

Fantastic job. I really admire your rendition and how much more intimate the monologue was without the traditional climactic outbursts. Bravo! 👏👏👏

You Did Really Awesome 👏! I Like How You Performed About A Death Of A Salesman.

I thought I could act until I watched this.

Appreciate it Andrew. It's funny, did this a little over two years ago and the way life has gone would change the way this would deliver today... live truthfully

Wonderful!

Great acting!

Damn that was great

Is that your natural accent, or are you doing it for the part? Because it's a good accent. Your acting is very believable, and it's a nice change from the usual, almost hysterical performance of this monologue.

Hi Rach, It was a speech choice. I'd watched a lot of others perform the scene and it usually as you said came across the same. In the play that type of hysterical interpretation makes a lot of sense (the strong are emotions during the argument), but as a monologue without any back and forth dialog you're free to remove some of that. When I read the scene on paper there's a sense of resentment, anger, and exhaustion with his father which is what came out when I did it. I'm glad you enjoyed.

for myself, it's important to understand the circumstances of the situation, and the relationship of the characters. In the case of Biff and Willy, you have a father and son. There's already a set of expectations that a father instills on a son, especially in that time period. The monologue itself provides you with enough insight that Willy has always set his son on a pedestal which has caused a huge amount of pressure on Biff. If he can't measure up he's failed as a son. He's taken a path that wasn't for him, but rather the path his father chose for him. Biff goes along with this for as long as he can to avoid disappointing his father, but in turn, kills him inside. The same can go for a daughter so that I don't believe makes a difference. This is his breaking point. The character has hit finally hit a wall and that day had a moment of clarity. He decided in that moment he was going to start living for himself and not his father. Biff loves his father and I think you hear that through the pain of his words that he doesn't want to disappoint him but he can't go on anymore living a lie. My advise would be is to be honest as possible with the character you're speaking to. In this case your father. Each line is a memory of pain for Biff, but at the same time he's letting it all go. There's therapy for him in this, "there's no shame in it anymore. It's who I am, that's all." Don't marry yourself to an emotion. There's a lot of times we go somewhere where we're going to tell someone off (let'em have it), but when the door opens that emotion of anger leaves and we have to build are way back up. Your father is intimidating to you. Some of this may make you nervous to say. Stay truthful.
