Ah, Wilderness!

"...as lovely a dream as has ever been..." - John Guare

This production of Eugene O'Neill's nostalgic paean to the rites of adolescence has been hailed for its beauty, intimacy and good humor. Set in New England in the days of America's innocence, the affectionate comedy presents a young man's coming of age during a summer in which he experiments with poetry, politics, wicked women and alcohol and succumbs to his first romantic crush. The New York Times wrote: "With sustained intelligence and sensitivity, The Long Wharf Theatre and its artistic director, Arvin Brown have wrought something of a miracle with Ah, Wilderness!"
