The Great God Brown

Adapted from Eugene O’Neill’s play, The Great God Brown uses masks and doubling to examine ambition, intimacy, public identity, and the private self. The production was created as an MFA thesis at Columbia University.

A lone performer stands in a narrow shaft of light on a dark stage.
