Long Day’s Journey Into Night at the Wyndham’s Theatre starring Jeremy Irons and Lesley Manville

Eugene O’Neill’s Pulitzer prize-winning masterpiece is brought to life by a multi-award winning team led by director Richard Eyre (Notes on a Scandal, Iris), and starring Jeremy Irons (Brideshead Revisited, The Borgias) opposite Academy Award nominee Lesley Manville (Phantom ThreadGhosts, Another Year).

An unashamedly autobiographical account of O’Neill’s own life, Long Day’s Journey Into Night is considered one of the most powerful American plays of the 20th century.

Long Day’s Journey Into Night will run from 27 January 2018 until 8 April 2018  at the Wyndham’s Theatre, London
