Eugene O’Neill comedy, AH, WILDERNESS! Now Playing At Actors Co-op
In this unabashedly romantic and sweetly funny comedy, master playwright Eugene O’Neill returns us to an idyllic age of America focusing on a young man, young love and his coming-of-age. Mr. O’Neill’s only well-known comedy, AH WILDERNESS! is said to be a wistful re-imagining of his youth as he wished it had been (in stark contrast to his autobiographical LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT). The play premiered on Broadway in 1933. During his career, Eugene O’Neill (1888-1953) received four Pulitzer Prizes for his plays - more than any other playwright. He was also awarded the Nobel Prize for literature, the first American dramatist to be so honored.
