The Great God Brown by Eugene O’Neill

Two childhood friends. Two very different paths. One driven by creativity, the other by ambition. As their lives unfold, the people they meet, the choices they make, and the faces they show the world test their friendship in unexpected ways.

O’Neill’s inventive use of masks reveals both the surface and what lies beneath, exploring identity, longing, and the quiet harm of hiding our true selves. This rarely performed classic blends warmth, tension, and hauntingly memorable visuals, encouraging reflection on how well we really know ourselves and those around us.

In the intimate setting of The Lantern, this is an evening of theatre that stays with you, creative, moving, and full of moments to discuss long after the curtain falls.
