[edit] masks
This sentence in the introduction is fascinating, but not very informative. Can this be expanded into a paragraph explaining its significance? "He was also part of the modern movement to revive the classical heroic mask from ancient Greek theatre and Japanese Noh theatre in some of his plays."--In Defense of the Artist 20:48, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
- This link might help http://www.amrep.org/articles/3_3b/tragic.html In his play "The Great God Brown" the actors don and remove masks to show their characters putting on 'social' masks of character. (83.13.39.98 (talk) 22:11, 13 February 2008 (UTC))
[edit] residence
Can anyone put in where he lived from 1944 to 1953? WikiDon 20:35, 5 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] dillusionment
Does this word exist? It is in the first paragraph.

No it doesn't. The word the author meant to use was Disillusionment.
[edit] missing reference
With regards to the "recent research" that has shown Ella's father to have had aremenian roots. Such a close reference to recent research might require a reference. this addition would add credability, otherwise reference to such research is merely heresay.

[edit] Armenian roots?
In the article it says that recent research reveals that he had Armenian roots. Kind of surprising. Does anyone have sources and more information about this? Hakob 00:48, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Where the Cross is Made
I found no mention of this O'Neill play anywhere on Wikipedia. Does anyone know it? I just read it on a random site.
[edit] Vandalism alert!
This article has definitely been vandalized: the 2 examples I found: "O'Neill spent the next few years eating popcorn" and his father "spanked himself to death". This needs to be fixed! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.180.67.131 (talk) 00:58, 14 November 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Theater image
The caption for image: "Provincetown Theatre - Van Vechten.jpg" describes it as the place where O'Neill's first play took place. The same image on the Library of Congress has this caption: "The original theater where O'Neill plays were presented was destroyed in 1922. This photograph probably shows the second Wharf Theater." —Preceding unsigned comment added by Djhayn (talk • contribs) 13:54, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
