THE STORY: Hughie is one of Eugene O’Neill’s last works. It was originally intended as part of a series of short plays, but it became the lone survivor when O’Neill destroyed the others. Set in the lobby of a seedy Time Square hotel early one morning, the characters are the hotel’s gray, withdrawn night clerk and “Erie” Smith, a penny-ante gambler who has spent most of his last fifteen years at the hotel between periods of drunkenness.

Produced by special arrangement with Dramatist’s Play Service, Inc.
