Tony Award-winner Fritz Weaver and Emmy-winner Nancy Marchand (Livia in The Sopranos)star in Eugene O'Neill's "A Touch of the Poet." Set in a shabby tavern outside Boston in 1828, the play centers on Cornelius Melody (Weaver), a proud Irishman who clings to memories of European gentility. The play was conceived by O'Neill - regarded by many as America's greatest dramatist - as part of a nine-play chronicle spanning 175 years in the life of an American family. LIke other O'Neill works such as "A Moon for the Misbegotten" and "Long Day's Journey into Night," this play explores it's characters' conflicts with reality and illusion, as well as their joys and sorrows in love.
