Follow on Google News | Adelphi University Students Perform Dancing at LughnasaDancing at Lughnasa is directed by adjunct professor JJ O’Neil. Mr. O’Neil has had a long connection with the show, first appearing as Michael in an Adelphi University production in the early 1990s. He later performed the role of Michael’s father as a graduate student in San Diego. In directing this production, Mr. O’Neil’s goal is to bring the same hope and spirit that he has found in Dancing at Lughnasa to the Adelphi community once again. The original production of Dancing at Lughnasa, written by Brian Friel, opened in Dublin in 1990, and then transferred to London’s National Theatre and ultimately Broadway. It won the Tony Award for Best Play in 1992 and the Olivier Award for Best Play in 1991. It has been hailed as Friel’s masterpiece, a haunting and poignant look at the spirit of the past.
