Ah! Wilderness

The only comedy by Eugene O’Neill, the greatest of all American playwrights, Ah, Wilderness! chronicles the tender coming of age of a teenage boy in a small Connecticut town around the turn of the twentieth century. Richard Miller, months away from his freshman year at Yale, is curious, intellectual, rebellious and eager for his life to start; he’s also baffled by sex and romance. Eric Butler ’06 directs this classic American family play, which is charming and touching by turns.

This celebrated musical play is set against the backdrop of Berlin in the early 1930s, where a young American writer in search of inspiration rents a cheap flat and discovers both the glories of the city and its sinister side – the Nazis and widespread anti-Semitism. He also falls in love with an aspiring singer, full of sexual bravado, who performs at the Kit Kit Klub. Directed by Meaghan Deiter
