Long Day's Journey Into Night Tickets

Brian Cox returns to the West End

Brian Cox makes a triumphant return to the West End in Long Day’s Journey into Night at Wyndham’s Theatre in 2024. Eugene O’Neill’s magnum opus is a beautiful portrait of family life, revived with an incredible cast.

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 a production that is absolutely unmissable.

Brian Cox leads the cast of Long Day’s Journey into Night, as James Tyrone, marking his first London stage role in 10 years. Further casting includes Emmy Award-winner Patricia Clarkson as Mary Tyrone, Daryl McCormack as James Jr., Alex Lawther as Edmund and Louisa Harland as Cathleen.

Guaranteed to be the theatrical event of the year, book Long Day’s Journey into Night tickets to see Brian Cox command the stage in one of America’s greatest plays.
