A stage production of Eugene O'Neill's classic play Desire Under the Elms, in a new version, at a London theatre. Director Ebenezer Bamgboye stages the shattering family drama, inspired by Greek tragedy, with Zackary Momoh among the cast. On a family farm, half-brothers Eben, Peter and Simeon toil and dream of the future until their patriarch Ephraim, missing for two months, returns with an unexpected companion who upends everything. It is a raging battle between the passion of the heart and the reason of the mind.
