In this acclaimed masterpiece by Pulitzer Prize-winning playwright Tennessee Williams, family tensions run high and are as thick as a humid southern summer night. While one brother and his scheming wife are vying for his dying father’s inheritance, the other seeks escape in a bottle as he avoids dealing with his turbulent marriage to Maggie “The Cat,” in a place where the “walls have ears.” Explosive and poignant, this contemporary drama, made famous by the 1958 film starring Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman, examines the dysfunctional Southern family’s rivalries, avarice and secrets. Adult language and themes.

This production is offered through the generous support of the 2008 Summer Arts Festival, a program of the Office of Summer and Winter Session. Production Sponsor: Royal Elizabeth Bed & Breakfast.
