No Script: The Podcast | S1 Episode 29: "Ah, Wilderness!" by Eugene O'Neill

Eugene O'Neill is well known for his dark, brooking tragedies. But in their first discussion on an O'Neill play, Jackson and Jacob take on his one and only comedy: "Ah, Wilderness!" The play follows the Miller family, who are enjoying another wonderful Fourth of July holiday. Trouble brews when Richard Miller - a rebellious 16 year old - is dumped by his girlfriend Muriel and goes on a wild binge as a result. Listen in as J&J talk about O'Neill's use of natural imagery and character development.  ------------------------------ We had so much fun talking about this play, and we’d love to keep the conversation going!
