Strange Interlude

The groundbreaking, Pulitzer Prize–winning drama following the private life of a professor’s daughter, by the playwright famed for The Iceman Cometh.
 
Nina Leeds, the daughter of a classics professor at a New England college, has had her dreams shattered by the Great War, in which her fiancé perished. In her grief, she sets out on an aimless path of sordid affairs while rejecting a devoted admirer. When she finally does marry, it is to a pleasant, trusting fellow named Sam. But when she hears deeply upsetting news while carrying his baby, her shock leads her on a deceptive path that will cast a shadow over their relationship, and the rest of Nina’s life.
 
Debuting on Broadway in 1928 with Lynn Fontanne in the starring role, Strange Interlude earned Nobel laureate Eugene O’Neill one of his four Pulitzer Prizes, and remains one of his most daring and interesting works.
