I'm pleased to let you know that my poster design for the play by Eugene O’Neill, "Long Day's Journey into Night", at the Gavella Drama Theatre in Zagreb, Croatia, has been posted on the streets of Zagreb.
The play is directed by Vanja Jovanović and marks the beginning of the Gavella Drama Theatre's new season.
“The play takes place on a single day in August 1912. The setting is Monte Cristo Cottage, the seaside home of the Tyrones in Connecticut. The four main characters are semi-autobiographical representations of O'Neill, his older brother, and their parents, including his father, actor James O'Neill.
The play portrays a family struggling to grapple with the realities and consequences of each member's failings. The parents and two sons blame and resent each other for various reasons; bitterness and jealousy serve as proxies for ultimately failed attempts at tenderness and compassion. The family's enduring emotional and psychological stress is fueled by their shared self-analysis, combined with articulate honesty. The story deals with addiction, unfulfilled dreams, moral flaws, and the struggle of family relationships."
