The Iceman Cometh, Eugene O'Neill's classic tragedy, was written in 1939 and first opened in 1946. Larry Slade, an ex-anarchist and a regular at Harry Hope's Saloon, has abandoned his hopes frustrated by the everyday dullness of life. Slade's fellow alcoholics reminisce and talk of the dreams they had planned for their lifetime. Through a series of surprising events, the characters of The Iceman Cometh present devastating confessions that chronicle the dark side of human nature. David Morse will be featured in the central role of Hickey, a gambler who changes his ways and is determined to help the drifters, alcoholics and prostitutes who have come to depend on him.
