Someone else has been thinking about Death of a Salesman and Buffy.

It's often said that the 'Death of a Salesman' production in Restless bears no resemblance to the play. I don't agree, particularly when I think of the piano scene, where Buffy scolds Riley while Harmony weeps on the sofa. The combination of the music and Buffs' relentless declamation reminds me strongly of the scene where Willy's loud conversation with the Woman is interrupted by continual banging on the door from Biff.
