Jules Bledsoe interrupted one performance of this play to lecture some hecklers about proper theatermanners. The title character of this play is afraid of several shapeless creatures known as the "little formlessfears" and comes across a crouching man shaking dice, whom he recognizes as Jeff, a man he murdered forcheating in a dice game. The constant sound of tom-toms haunts the title character, who kills a crocodilesummoned by a priest just before being cornered by the white overseer Smithers and several rebellioussubjects. In its Provincetown Players-staged premiere, Charles Sidney Gilpin played the title role inblackface. For 10 points, name this drama in which ex-Pullman Porter Brutus cultivates a legend that hecan only be killed with a silver bullet, written by Eugene O'Neill.
