Drama

Krutch, Joseph Wood | January 26, 1952 issue

Very few attempts have been made to revive the plays of Eugene O'Neill on Broadway. Many of them were commercially successful as well as highly esteemed, but there has always been a minority which refused to admit that O'Neill's virtues were genuine or that they would long seem so. The company at the City Center has now opened the question with a first-rate production of "Anna Christie," and the result is strong evidence on the side of those who have sturdily maintained O'Neill's claim to be, of all American playwrights, the one most likely to last.
