CENTERstage Productions presents "The Iceman Cometh," a play which was written by Eugene ONeill in 1939, first published in 1946 and premiered on Broadway the same year. ONeill, who won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1936, is generally considered to be one of the greatest playwrights, and "The Iceman Cometh" is considered by many to be his finest work.
The play is set at Harry Hopes rundown saloon and boarding house in 1912 and tells the story of a group of aimless patrons and boarders whose empty lives underscore the human need for dreaming and hope. It opens with the rag tag group awaiting the arrival of their favorite visitor, charismatic salesman Theodore Hickey Hickman.
This production at the Center for Performing Arts at Rhinebeck, directed by Donna Betts, is scheduled to run from Oct. 2029 with performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m. and on Sundays at 3 p.m.
