All my sons

Act one:

we are met by Joe Keller the main character of this play he seems to be an old fun loving guy as he likes to joke around with the children in the neighbourhood. His wife kate seems to think that her son Larry is alive and yet everyone else knows that he has died in the war. Chris i joe and kates other son, he seems to be a realist and think logically, clearly knowing that his brother is dead he tries to confront his mother to stop believing that Larry is still alive. We are later introduced to Annie who is Larry's ex-girlfriend and she also is in love with chris, we find out that they want to get married which Joe clearly knows kate will have an objection to.

We find out that Kate will belive in anything so long as to prove Larry is still alive by asking her neighbour to write a horoscope for her son on the day he went missing to see whether it was a favourable day for him or not. We find out that Annie's dad and Joe used to run a business together but Annie's dad was put in jail for selling faulty airplane cylinders(this was actaully joe's fault).
