It's day eight of the 71st Cannes Film Festival and there's an uneasy feeling in the air.

It's Thursday and time for our regular weekly visit with theater critic J. Wynn Rousuck, who joins us today with her review of the new production of Eugene O'Neill's dark classic, Long Day's Journey Into Night, now on stage at Baltimore's Everyman Theatre.With director Donald Hicken​ helming a seasoned cast of resident company* and guest actors, the play recounts a summer day and night in 1912 in the Connecticut home of the Tyrone family. A stream of interactions quickly reveals the family members' deep emotional wounds and long-simmering conflicts. James Tyrone (played by Kurt Rhoads, in his Everyman debut), his morphine-addicted wife Mary (Deborah Hazlett*), and their two sons, Jamie (Tim Getman*) and Edmund (Danny Gavigan*), struggle to connect with each other through their tangled webs of drug addiction, alcoholism, anger and love. The production also features actress Katherine Ariyan as Cathleen, the Tyrone's housekeeper.Long Day's Journey Into Night continues at Baltimore's Everyman Theatre til Sunday, March 4. For ticket information click here.Judy also spotlights two distinctive productions making brief runs in the region. The first is a landmark collaboration between two seemingly unlikely bedfellows — the Baltimore Rock Opera Society and Arena Players. “Constellations” and “Crossroads” are two original short operas about African-Americans, including “Hidden Figures’” Katherine Johnson, running February 9-11 and 16-18. Here's a Youtube video about it from BROS. The other notable production is a rewritten version of the Benny Andersson, Bju246urn Ulvaeus, Tim Rice musical, “Chess,” the first installment of a new series of high-profile staged concerts at the Kennedy Center. Chess runs February 14- 18.

But the play soon sweeps us into an emotionally tortuous night in which the family begins to confront long-buried secrets of drug addiction and dysfunction, and then struggles, despite their love for each other, to cope with the truth.Joining Tom in the studio to discuss the challenges of bringing this play’s characters and its powerful themes to life, is Everyman resident company actor Deborah Hazelett, who plays the drug-addled matriarch, Mary Tyrone; and Jonathan K. Waller, Everyman’s managing director. They explore how O’Neill’s dark classic seems especially resonant today, as an epidemic of opioid addiction and abuse tears at the fabric of millions of American families, here in Baltimore and across the country, and how the company is reaching out to address that issue with its audiences and the wider community.Long Day's Journey Into Night continues at the Everyman Theatre through March 4.

Akira Kurosawa's Ran,originally released in 1985, was - at the time - the most expensive Japanese film ever made. It won awards galore and is considered a classic. Is it still as breathtaking as on first release? Eugene O'Neill's play Long Day's Journey Into Night is at Bristol's Old Vic starring Jeremy Irons and Lesly Manville. It's directed by Richard Eyre. Julia Davis' newest TV comedy Camping follows several couples (with varying degrees of dysfunction in their relationships) as they spend a ghastly holiday under canvas Ann Wroe's book 6 Facets of Light is a series of meditations on the essential nature of light. The Museum of Brands offers a peculiar and unique view of 200 years of British society through packaging, design, toys, magazines and other items. Formerly in Gloucester, it has now moved to a new location in London Tom Sutcliffe's guests are Andrea Rose, Geoffrey Durham and Maev Kennedy. The producer is Oliver Jones.

One of the cool things about the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, the current season of which I have been reporting on lately, is the way it often programs shows that cleverly comment on each other in interesting ways. This year’s festival, which runs through November 1st up in Ashland, Oregon, has one particularly creative pairing of shows, though to the casual theatergoer, the connection might not seem obvious. I’m talking about Charles Fechter’s melodramatic 1868 adaptation of "The Count of Monte Cristo," now playing on the big outdoor Allen Elizabethan theater, and Eugene O’Neil’s Pulitzer-winning drama "A Long Day’s Journey Into Night," running in the intimate indoor Thomas Theater. What does a popcorn-level swashbuckling adventure about revenge and swordfights have to do with a theatrical masterpiece about drug addiction and chronic self-destruction? Keep listening. O’Neill’s autobiographical tale tells a painfully personal family story, thinly disguised as fiction, but burning with the raw anguish, and dark comedy of truth. Impressively directed by Christopher Liam Moore - putting the “long” into Long Day’s Journey by using the full text, all four hours of it - the OSF production pulls off something truly spectacular, presenting a lushly real look at the gorgeously ugly inner lives of one very troubled, but occasionally kind-of-loving American family, circa 1912. Edmund Tyrone (a masterful Danforth Comins) is young, alcoholic, and sick of body. He’s probably dying of consumption. He’s also sick of heart, after learning that his drug addicted mother has just started using again. Over the course of one very long day and night, Edmund will learn his own fate - spoiler: Eugne O’Neil did NOT die of consumption - and will go on to confront each member of his family in turn, as they all pound back enough whiskey to fill an inflatable swimming pool. The exception, of course, is Mom, who prefers shooting up to whiskey shots. Edmund’s father, James (Michael Winters, also excellent), is terrified of ending up in the poor house, despite having made a fortune as a stage actor in a popular adventure (he calls it “the moneymaker”) which he considered beneath him, but couldn’t stop performing for fear of losing his sizable income. Guess what that real-life “money-maker was? Yep. "The Count of Monte Cristo," the very same adaptation OSF is presenting this year, being careful to retain the script changes made in the early 1900’s by James O’Neill, the real-life actor father of Eugene O’Neill. This adaptation emphasizes the fun parts of Dumas’ classic novel while diminishing or eliminating its, um, boring parts. It accomplishes this largely by establishing an over-the-top melodramatic tone that has little resemblance to the serious historical melancholy of the original, but works well with the help of some big, entertaining stagecraft, courtesy of director Marcella Lorca. You probably know the story. Edmond Dantes is a ship’s captain framed by a trio of businessmen and politicians who all have something to gain by getting rid of the gentle, kindhearted captain. His years-long imprisonment in an island hellhole is condensed here, using some storytelling trickery. After escaping and locating a buried treasure, he returns home as the mysterious Count of Monte Cristo, planning to exact revenge on all who betrayed him. The performances are tuned a tad bigger than life, but just short of having the villains twirl their mustaches. Thanks to OSF’s clever programming, audiences can catch 'Monte Cristo,' then go see 'A Long Day’s Journey,' and when the drunken patriarch talks about his love-hate relationship with “the Money-maker,” everyone will know exactly what he’s talking about. Thanks OSF. That’s kind of cool. The Oregon Shakespeare Festival runs through November 1st. www.OSFAsland.org. I’m David Templeton, Second Row Center, for KRCB.

With Mark Lawson. Actor David Suchet discusses his role in a new production of Long Day's Journey Into Night and laments the passing of Poirot. Roger Wright, controller of Radio 3, joins Mark to share a few highlights of this summer's BBC Proms concerts: Daniel Barenboim conducting his first ever Beethoven symphony cycle in London; operas including Nixon In China, Congolese musicians Staff Benda Bilili and Radio 4's Desert Island Discs celebrating its 70th birthday with a live prom; and this year's Children's Prom launches the audience into the wonderful world of Wallace and Gromit. To celebrate the centenary of the British Board of Film Classification, The British Silent Film Festival is hosting an examination of the early days of film censorship. Bryony Dixon of the British Film Institute and Lucy Brett, education officer at the BBFC, tell Mark how and why censorship came about, what sort of person was hired as a sensor of silent films - and what sort of things they cut out. Producer Rebecca Nicholson.

On April 27, 1986 frequent SDCF interviewer and legendary acting coach Ada Brown Mather sat down with director Sir Jonathan Miller to discuss Eugene O'Neill's work one day before his revival of "Long Day's Journey Into Night" opened on Broadway. In this conversation Sir Miller covers his career as a performer, his recommitment to working in the theatre despite a career as a doctor, his affinity for directing opera, the accidental manner in which he accepted the position as director on "Long Day's Journey" and how he tackles working on such a seminal piece of American theatre.

How about a little culture this week? Eugene O'Neill is Americas only Nobel Prize winning playwright.Eugene ONeill National Historic Site preserves the home where he lived in California at the climax of his writing career. He and his wife, Carlotta, built and lived at the home in the hills above Danville from 1937 to 1944. It is here that he wrote his final and most memorable plays; "The Iceman Cometh," "Long Day's Journey Into Night," and "A Moon For the Misbegotten."Note that because of its location, reservations are required to visit the site but more on that in the interview.This week's interview: Eugene ONeill National Historic SiteWebsites:http://www.eTravelogue.com/http://www.nps.gov/euonBe sure to stop by our site and suggest attractions that you think we should cover on the program!Listen to this issue
