A summer day in the life of the Tyrones unfolds in this great American play, which is largely based on playwright Eugene O’Neill’s own dysfunctional family. Each member of this chaotic group is struggling with love, hate, betrayal and failure, and the bond that holds them together is becoming increasingly frail.Considered by many to be Eugene O’Neill’s masterwork, Long Day’s Journey into Night was first performed in 1956, and won O’Neill a posthumous Pulitzer Prize for Drama. In this huge revival, director Jeremy Herrin (Best of Enemies) brings the universality of one family’s struggles into sharp focus, for an absolutely unmissable production.
