Follow on Google News | Odyssey Theatre Ensemble presents “Anna Christie”Zoe Perry stars alongside her father, Scandal’s Jeff Perry and Grey’s Anatomy’s Kevin McKidd in Eugene O’Neill’s surprisingly contemporary classic.
By: Odyssey Theatre Ensemble “It’s kind of spectacular that O’Neill wrote this nearly 95 years ago,” says director Kim Rubinstein. “It’s the story of a strong, independent woman who is a victim of abuse and forced into a life of degradation by her circumstances, and of two men who come to understand and recognize their own culpability in her plight and are transformed by that. It’s very passionate, and layers and layers deep.” Anna Christie debuted on Broadway at the Vanderbilt Theatre on November 2, 1921, garnering O’Neill’s second of four Pulitzer Prizes. A 1993 Broadway revival by the Roundabout Theatre Company was the recipient of both Tony and Drama Desk Awards for Best Revival, and a 2003 revival at London’s Donmar Warehouse was honored with the Olivier Award.Anna Christie was successfully adapted to the screen three times; the second version starred Greta Garbo and is considered by film critics to be one of Hollywood’s finest motion pictures. Performances of Anna Christie take place three times a week, on Saturdays at 2 p.m., Saturdays at 8 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m., from Jan. 24 through March 8.(dark Feb. 1).
