Eugene O’Neill: An Irish-American Boyhood
By Turlough McConnell
Eugene O’Neill: An Irish-American Boyhood,” by noted theatre writer and curator Turlough McConnell, renders a theatrical portrait of the childhood of Eugene O’Neill in “post-famine” New York, illustrating the impact of Irish immigration on O’Neill’s writing.
With a cast including Ciaran Byrne, Colin Ryan and Carey Van Driest, and directed by Jenny Sterlin, the performance-reading will be followed by a talkback with McConnell, who is joined by O’Neill scholar Zander Brietzke, Columbia University.
