Devon Prep Theater Program Presents "Ah, Wilderness!”
Devon Prep’s Theater Program presented four performances of “Ah, Wilderness!” by Eugene O’Neill in early November. This comedy takes place on the Fourth of July in 1906 and focuses on the Miller family of New London, Connecticut. The main plot deals with the middle son, 16 year old Richard, and his coming of age. The title derives from one of Richard’s favorite poems Quatrain XI of Edward Fitzgerald’s translation of the Rubaiyat of Omar Khayyam.
The cast included 24 students from Devon Prep, Conestoga High School, Country Day School of the Sacred Heart, the Woodlynde School, Notre Dame Academy, and Archbishop Carroll High School.
Mr. Carl Gedeik directed the performances.
