SETTING Harry Hope’s saloon, New York.
ACT I A summer’s day, early morning. ACT II Near midnight of the same day. ACT III The middle of the next morning. ACT IV 1:30am—the following day. Director’s Note
I have long regarded Eugene O’Neill as the greatest playwright that America has produced so far— and my ongoing fascination with his plays has been a centerpiece of my 28-year tenure as Artistic Director of Chicago’s Goodman Theatre. During this time Brian Dennehy has been my primary collaborator; his own love of this essential American writer has led to towering performances in half a dozen O’Neill productions through the years, including a memorable turn as Hickey in The Iceman Cometh in 1990. Several years ago, Brian and I mentioned in an interview that we’d like to explore the play again, with Brian now playing the role of Larry Slade; Nathan Lane, a great friend of Brian’s, caught wind of this, and contacted me about his interest in Hickey, a role he’d long wanted to tackle. It took several years for our various schedules to mesh—but in the winter of 2012, Nathan, Brian and I began our work, along with a distinguished company of artists, many from our Chicago acting community. The resulting production, which opened at the Goodman in April of that year, was one of which we were all extremely proud, and we are thrilled to have the opportunity to continue our work three years later.
No playwright is as complex, unwieldy, and daunting to confront as O’Neill, and none of his plays is as challenging as The Iceman Cometh, written at the same time as his other masterwork, Long Day’s Journey into Night. Set in a bar in New York’s Bowery, Iceman is peopled with a microcosm of the world, a varied group of former soldiers of fortune, entrepreneurs, political dissidents, and social outcasts bound together by two things: their dreams of the glories that could be found just outside the doors of Harry Hope’s saloon, and their excitement at the impending arrival of Theodore Hickman, “Hickey” to his friends, a gregarious salesman who is the biggest dreamer of them all. Hickey does come, but his infectious optimism is now tempered by a newly acquired—and sobering—realism. His visit, and the discoveries that he reveals, lead to a series of dramatic events that are at once comically absurd, savagely heartbreaking, and utterly profound. Mammoth in structure and epic in ambition, The Iceman Cometh is both an absorbing theatrical journey and an X-ray of the human condition, replete with all of its ambitions, its joys—and its inevitable, inexorable terrors.
—Robert Falls, Director
THE ICEMAN COMETH: PRODUCTION HISTORY
Although Eugene O’Neill completed a draft of The Iceman Cometh in 1939, his precarious health and depression over the “damned world debacle” of World War II delayed the play’s premiere until 1946. Critical response was mixed; but a 1956 Circle in the Square revival, directed by José Quintero and starring a little-known Jason Robards, Jr., was rapturously received, and was later adapted for a CBS telecast. In 1973, producer Ely Landau chose Iceman to begin his American Film Theatre series, in an adaptation featuring Robert Ryan, Lee Marvin, and a young Jeff Bridges. James Earl Jones played Hickey in a 1974 Circle in the Square revival; Brian Dennehy essayed the role in Robert Falls’ 1990 Goodman Theatre production, which was reprised at Dublin’s Abbey Theatre. Almeida Theatre’s 1998 production, starring Kevin Spacey, came to Broadway for an acclaimed three-month run. This produc- tion of The Iceman Cometh premiered at Goodman Theatre in 2012, setting records as the most popular play in the theater’s 90-year history. Who’s Who
