Eugene Oâ??Neillâ??s â??Ileâ?? was first performed in 1917. The action takes place aboard a whaling ship in the captainâ??s cabin. Key objects in the captainâ??s cabin are brought to the audienceâ??s attention by the narrator. It is soon made clear, the ship's sailors have an ever increasing fear their captain has gone crazy based on what they deem to be irrational actions he has taken during the voyage. The hysteria reaches a breaking point barely averting a mutiny.
