ICEMAN COMETH ARRIVES IN NYC


“The thing about O’Neill is that he demands everything from you, and it’s not enough,” said Mr. Dennehy, at 76 somewhat bowed in stature but still imposingly broad-shouldered, his jack-o'-lantern head sliced by a frown. “You know that going in, you know that coming out; you come out and you say, ‘I’ve been able to accomplish even less than I thought I could accomplish.' ” - Brian Dennehy



“O’Neill, the daddy of American drama, is asking you to hold hands and jump off this cliff with him, and he’s asking you to do what at times seems almost impossible. It demands stamina and lung power and guts and psychological complexity, plus he’s asking you to go to the darkest place in your soul, the place you didn’t even know you had.” - Nathan Lane
