Long Day's Journey Into Night
January 31, 2018 - March 4, 2018
By Eugene O'Neill
Directed by Donald Hicken
Overview
What begins as an ordinary summer day at the Connecticut home of the Tyrone family morphs into a night filled with foggy, drink-laced demons where long-buried secrets are revealed—and once exposed cannot be ignored. A long-revered showcase for tour-de-force performances, Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning masterpiece (published posthumously) lays bare what we all know to be true: the ardor of familial love cannot always protect you. Long Day’s Journey Into Night is an autobiographical insight into its late, legendary playwright—and a compassionately brutal look at one family’s struggle to fight for love itself.
Please Note: Long Day's Journey Into Night runs approximately 3 hours and 30 minutes and will be performed in three acts with two 10-minute intermissions. The production uses herbal tobacco and haze.
