年逾花甲的推销员威利·洛曼,拎着两只沉重的、装样品的箱子回到家。他极度疲倦,仿佛已经走到了生命的尽头。只有老伴儿林达了解他、体贴他,尽一切努力来维护他的尊严,希望能给他一些生活下去的勇气和信心。然而,这一切似乎都无济于事……壮年时代的威利,一付精明强干的神气,两个儿子比夫和哈皮,是他的骄傲。尽管比夫的学习成绩不及格,也没有引起做父亲的重视,因为,他确认比夫将来完全可以当一名体育明星,然而,事与愿违,大儿子比夫多次离家出走,宁愿去当农业工人,也不愿留在充满竞争与欺诈的大城市里。在沉重的压力下,威利的精神恍惚不定。为了拯救威利,林达呼吁孩子们要怜爱父亲,甚至把威利要自杀的企图告诉了他们。这时,小儿子哈皮想出一个办法!让比夫向朋友借钱,由洛曼兄弟自家独立经营,以期干出一番事业来。这个令人振奋的设想,使全家人抱着新的希望进入了梦乡……为了预祝未来理想的实现,父子们约定在餐馆中聚会。而就在他们见面时,双方带来的都是不幸的消息:比夫没有借到钱,威利也被公司开除了。这使得父子间又发生了激烈的争吵,然而,他们谁也没搞清楚,生活不下去的社会原因。最终,威利还是自杀了…… 为了死后的保险赔偿给家人带来福利。

其它标题: Waiting for Godot 导演: Samuel Beckett / 未知 演员: Bert Lahr / Tom Ewell / Zero Mostel / Burgess Meredith / Austin Pendleton
On a bare country road Vladimir and his friend Estragon wait in hope of salvation from a man called Godot. Their hope of salvation lies in Godot's arrival. While waiting they play games, entertain one another with vaudevillian tricks, question whether Godot will arrive and how they will benefit when he does. They are interrupted by the arrival of Pozzo (a land owner) and Lucky (Pozzo's slave). Pozzo questions their reasoning for waiting. Lucky performs a staggering burst of a monologue. Pozzo and Lucky exit, night falls and a young boy arrives and tells Vladimir and Estragon that "Mr Godot won’t come here today but he'll surely arrive tomorrow.” In Act two Pozzo returns but he is blind and Lucky is mute. Vladimir and Estragon continue waiting. Still determining to go, the tramps do not move.

“I cannot express how much this show means to me,” writes artistic director, Peter Reid. “It is undoubtedly the greatest show of the 20th Century and has revolutionised the fabric of theatre.”

音乐剧《火腿骑士》改编自英国1974年的电影《蒙提派森与圣杯骑士Monty Python’s & the Holy Grail》,电影根据英国历史上最富有传奇性的亚瑟王与圆桌骑士的故事,进行极具颠覆性的改编,恶搞加爆笑的风格引得在场观众无不捧腹而归。当年电影虽没有特别突出的票房,却获得了极高的评价,也拥有了一批忠实观众。2005年3月17日音乐剧《火腿骑士》一经推出立刻造成轰动,不但票房鼎盛,还获得该年托尼奖14项提名,成为有史以来入围奖项最多的剧目,并最终获得最佳音乐剧、最佳导演、最佳女配角三项大奖。
第一幕
管弦樂團旁若無人地調音("Tuning"),指揮出來開始序曲。("Overture")
一歷史學家出來講解了當時英國的情況 - 總之周圍都一團亂,直至亞瑟王出現。("Historian's Introduction to Act I")台上開始表演,歌頌著芬蘭的好處...等等...歷史學家無奈地澄清是英國才對。("Finland/ Fisch Schlapping Dance")亞瑟王出場,伴著他的是弄臣珀西,他們要找人加入內閣成為圓桌武士。唸著經文的修士經過,羅賓要眾人搬出家中的死屍,蘭斯諾搬出的卻宣稱自己未死,還生猛的跳來跳去,結果被蘭斯諾一棒打死了。他與羅賓都想加入亞瑟王的圓桌武士的行列,並很快成功了("Monks Chant/ He is Not Dead Yet")。
亞瑟王被加拉赫懷疑王位的來源,便帶他去見女湖神。("Come With Me")女湖神再次宣稱亞瑟為王,並讓其侍女們說服其母。("Laker Girls Cheer")女湖神和已給說服的加拉赫為了劇情需要,便唱了一首"主打歌"("The Song That Go Like This")圓桌武士一共有五人: 加拉赫、貝迪菲爾、羅賓、蘭斯諾及在這裡不該出場的"不該出場"武士。("All For One")眾人在幻想中的王庭中因為每天都有很多午餐肉而高興,("Knights of the Round Table/ The Song That Goes Like This (Reprise)")上帝突然顯靈要他們去找聖杯,女湖神亦來鼓勵,("Find Your Grail")可眾人立即便被法國裔的軍隊以及呃...一堆舞蹈員打的抱頭逃竄。("Run Away!")
第二幕
("The Intermission")
歷史學家回來解釋情況,眾人為找聖杯決定分頭行事。亞瑟王遇到了只會說"Ni"的武士,他們要他去找史立草莓才給他們通過,珀西在亞瑟王灰心時鼓勵,果然完成任務。("Always Look on the Bright Side of Life")"膽大的"羅賓被一堆吟遊詩人們周圍唱頌,("Brave Sir Robin")之後與剛解決掉黑武士的亞瑟王相遇,說"Ni"的武士指示二人去征服百老匯,羅賓指出沒有猶太人要在百老匯立足不大可能會成功。("You Won't Succeed On Broadway")突然此劇唯一女角女湖神因無得出場而突然亂入,不住的哀歎。("Diva's Lament (Whatever Happened to my Part?)")
低窪城堡王子哈拔是個女人型,被父親逼婚又不許唱歌,拋下紙球求救。("Where Are You")蘭斯諾以為他是女子,便殺了一城堡的人來拯救他出來。後來知道是誤會,卻機緣巧合下堡主把兒子"嫁"了給蘭斯諾。("His Name is Lancelot")沒有頭緒的亞瑟王感到寂寞,即使珀西如何安慰也沒用。("I'm All Alone")女湖神再次出場提點他們已然是在音樂劇之中,二人相戀,並含情脈脈地重唱了主打歌。("Twice in Every Show")在魔法師添姆的幫助下亞瑟打敗殺手兔子拿到了聖杯,而終於所有人也找到了自己的"聖杯",大團圓結局。("Act II Finale")眾人再次出場勉勵凡事要向好的方向看。("Always Look on the Bright Side of Life (Company Bow)")
