About: Considered one of the greatest American playwrights of all time, Eugene O’Neill is credited with bringing realism to the American stage. However, The Hairy Ape takes audiences on an expressionistic journey. Obvious Dad’s new adaptation puts gender expression and social expectations at the forefront. Equal parts visceral and active, this production questions masculinity in the digital age.
