Sea Plays
The Eugene O’Neill Sea Plays are some of his least performed works of all time. We’re not sure why it’s so rarely played, but it does seem to be a good work to see. At the Goodman Theater in Chicago, these one-act plays were performed until this last weekend. And they were apparently very good performances. It was presented by a theater troupe out of Brazil and it was performed in Portuguese. One of the things that I find most interesting is in one of the plays where they bring the audience onstage to show them the “fall of a sailor” and then they take them backstage to see what seems like the inside of a ship. It’s a cool sounding show. It’s closed now, but maybe it’ll be shifting off to another city along the way.
