Review: LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT at St Louis Actors’ Studio
by James Lindhorst - Feb 9, 2025
This is an elegant production of LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT with a touch of surrealism. The creative team have taken O’Neill’s story and leaned into quaint imagery to enhance the story telling. Doggett’s period costumes designs are elevated by her tailoring and sumptuous fabric choices. Patrick Huber’s minimalist, but highly effective scenery and lighting design were complimented by Kristi Gunther’s oceanfront inspired sound design. The serenity created by the technical elements added to Pendelton’s directorial vision to counterbalance O’Neill’s scripted brutality. A LONG DAY’S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT, regarded as the masterpiece of Eugene O’Neill’s career, shows his family’s excruciating addiction, faultfinding, hopelessness, depression, and inhumanity. Pendelton captures O’Neill’s agonizing story in a well-acted and sophisticated production.

Review: LONG DAY'S JOURNEY INTO NIGHT, Wyndham's Theatre
by Louise Penn - Apr 3, 2024
Eugene O'Neill's classic play of family strife has had regular revivals in London (most recently in 2018 and 2012). Set in 1912 and published posthumously in 1956, it remains one of the great American plays. Brian Cox returns to the London stage as James Tyrone, actor, family colossus, and flawed man, in a mesmerising performance.
