Todd Haimes Theatre (Broadway)
229 W. 42nd St. New York, NY
Elegant in its simplicity yet limitless in its scope, Long Day's Journey Into Night is the tale of an ordinary summer's day with extraordinary consequences. Drawing so heavily from the author's personal history that it could only be produced posthumously, the story of the Tyrone family and their battle to unearth-and conceal-a lifetime of secrets continues to reveal itself to audiences as one of the most profound and powerful plays ever brought to the stage.
Two-time Academy Award winner and three-time Emmy Award winner Jessica Lange will play "Mary Tyrone," following her critically acclaimed, Olivier Award-nominated performance in the role on the West End in 2000.
Golden Globe winner and Tony Award nominee Gabriel Byrne will play "James Tyrone."
Tony Award winner John Gallagher Jr. will play "Edmond Tyrone."

FEATURED REVIEWS FOR Long Day's Journey Into Night
Review Even with Jessica Lange and Gabriel Byrne, 'Long Day's Journey Into Night' fails to connect
6 / 10
Grueling in the wrong hands, the play's relentless attacks and counterattacks have a revelatory power when the right cast comes together. On paper, the Roundabout Theatre Company revival...looks like a 'Long Day's Journey' for our time. But I found myself arguing as heatedly with this disconnected production as the characters were quarreling with one another...The actors simply don't meld...Lange, perhaps the most emotionally supple actress of her generation, portrays Mary as cut off from her loved ones by her morphine addiction...she's continuing to pursue the same unsentimental line that Mary, fixated on her next fix, may be even more of a monster than her grandstanding, tight-fisted husband. This approach worked better in London, where Lange played opposite Charles Dance, who brought an imposing patriarchal authority to James Tyrone.
Long Day's Journey Into Night: EW Stage review
6 / 10
Eugene O'Neill is not for everyone. The great playwright's most personal and revered masterpiece is Long Day's Journey into Night, and the Roundabout Theatre Company's star-studded revival at the American Airlines Theatre is three and a half hours of bile, bitterness, and regret, spewed by a family of addicts...director Jonathan Kent's new production feels weathered instead of raw, hollow instead of potent...At the center of the domestic storm is Jessica Lange, who played Mary during a 2000 run in London and has a masterful grasp of the character's fragility...There is such confusion in Mary, such buried resentment, and Lange's ability to portray a woman who is barely more than a ghost provides the story with enormous pathos.
