Today We all went to Westminster Abbey and marveled at the incredible architecture and history contained within the structure. The abbey has hundreds of famous writers, artists, scientists, and great figures in Britain’s history. One thing I thought was both funny and also a little messed up was the way that Charles Dickens was moved …

The British Museum
The British Museum is located in the Bloomsbury area of London and is dedicated to the documentation of human history and culture from its beginnings to current day. I found it interesting that the British Museum was the first national public museum and opened in 1759, well before the United States became a country. I …
I Journeyed for a Long Day
A Long Day’s Journey Into Night by Eugene O’neil is a tragically realistic play about a family that brings itself up and tears itself down. When we read the play for class, I really enjoyed the script. The characters are so interesting to me and the descent we see as everyone succumbs to their own …
Long Days Journey Into Night
Last night we saw Long Days Journey Into Night, a play written by Eugene O’Neil. We had read the script already for class in Fayetteville, which I had really liked and had made me very excited to see the play. I was also excited to see Brian Cox and Patricia Clarkson—actors who I knew were …

Brian Cox is Just a Sweet Old Man
Last night, we went to Wyndham’s Theatre to watch “Long Day’s Journey into Night,” by Eugene O’Neill. I was so excited to watch this show because the play means a lot to me, and I was prepared for this heavy and long night. The theatre space we watched in was chic and beautiful, and I …
So Many Edmunds in the Audience…SMH.
I would be careful to recommend this production of the play to other theatergoers. It would completely depend on the theatergoer because this is such an artistic and desperately tragic story. There are some people in my life, family and friends, who could not watch this play for the difficult topics, their lived experiences, or …
10. Original, not Baudelaire. Give me credit!
It’s time for another post from your favorite blogger in the world! Aren’t you glad I’m back? Not that you would have missed me. That’s right, I know you were hiding in this statuette of a little man inside the British Museum. Jokes aside, yesterday I did a lot of things! I went to the …

The longest of journeys
Long Day’s Journey Into Night is a show that I was deeply looking forward to and it did not disappoint. At first, I had trouble with the acting because I could not tell if it was a character choice or not for all of Mary’s lines to feel so regular and almost monotone. However, as …
A Long Day’s Journey Into Nothing
Greetings, all!! I know you’ve just been aching for another fun blog post from me, but I’m afraid this one will not be it. Today I will be discussing the production of Long Day’s Journey Into Night that we saw last night at the Wyndham Theatre. Spoiler alert, I was not a fan. The show …
