Early life of Eugene O'Neill:


        Eugene Gladstone O'Neil was a American dramatist and Nobel laureate in literature. His poetically titled play was supposed to be presented in American drama techniques of realism associated with Russian dramatist Anton Chekhov, Norwegian playwright Heinrich Ibsen and Swedish playwright August Strindberg. With the death of Arthur Miller, a street vendor of A Streetcar, Tennessee Williams and a short list of best American plays in the 20th century, the journey of Long Day is often done in the night.

        O'Neill was born at Broadway and a hotel at Barrett House on the 43rd Street, which was then LongCare Square (now Times Square). A memorial plaque was first dedicated there in 1957. This site is now occupied by 1500 Broadway, which has offices, retail and ABC studios.

        He was the son of Irish immigrant actor James O'Neil and Mary Ellen Quinnlan, who was also of Irish descent. Because his father was often on tour with a theatrical company, along with Eugene's mother, O'Neal was sent to St. Aloisius Academy for Boys, which was a Catholic boarding school in the Riverdale area of ​​the Bronx, where he was the only one in the books The console was found. His father was suffering from alcohol; Morphine's addiction is determined to remove his mother, his third son, Eugene's painful birth pain.

        After leaving Princeton, Eugene O'Neil flared for a time. He made several cruises, ran across the city with James, and consumed a lot of alcohol. He made a brief marriage with Kathleen Jenkins, which resulted in a son, Eugene O'Neill Jr.

        In 1912, O'Neill fought with tuberculosis. Describing his illness, he found his playwright as playwriter, inspired by such European playwright, inspired by August Strindberg and later enrolled in a writing class at Harvard University. O'Neill made his debut in 1916: Made in the Provinstown, Massachusetts: Bound East for Cardiff, an act-play that was staged later that year in New York.

        O'Neill's first appearance as a playwright took place in the summer of 1916, Providence, the quiet fishing village of Mass, where a group of young writers and painters started an experimental theater. In his small, Ramshakele playhouse on a wharf, he constructed his one-act play Bound East for Cardiff. The talent contained in the play became clear to the group immediately, which constituted the Playwrights Theater in Greenwich Village. On November 3, 1916, his first bill was included in the New York debut of Bound East for Cardiff-O'Neill.

        Although he was one of only authors whose plays were produced by theater of dramatics, his contributions in the next few years made the group's reputation. Between 1916 and 1920, the group produced all the ocean dramas of O'Neil's Ek-Act, as well as due to their few efforts. As long as his first full-length drama, Beyond the Horizon, Broadway, was made on February 2, 1920 in the Moroscó Theater, until then the young playwright already had a small reputation.

        Carlotta brought the spirit of order in the life of Monterey O'Neill. Their health deteriorated rapidly since 1937, but their care helped them stay productive. O'Neill had poor relations with his children: Eugene Jr., who killed himself in 1950; Shane, who became addicted to drugs; And Ona, who was ignored by her father after marrying actor Charlie Chaplin (1889-1977) O'Neill also left Shane and Ona with his will. When O'Neil knew that death was near, he instead wrote six of his incomplete plays, instead of writing something else. He died on November 27, 1953.
