The Tennessee Menagerie: An Evening with the Women of Tennessee Williams

Written by Tennessee Williams and co-conceived by Craig A. Miller and Lennie Dean

Directed by Lennie Dean

In this new visit with the female characters of one of America's greatest playwrights we see glimpses into William's own life as a son to a single mother and brother to a mentally disabled sister, and how some of his early women in his one act plays went on to mature into the most powerful matriarchs, sexually repressed ingenues, and tragic female victims of the American stage; now populating his better-known works such as The Glass Menagerie, A Streetcar Named Desire, Summer and Smoke, and more. Co-conceived by Artistic Director, Craig A. Miller, and company Dramaturge, Lennie Dean, this evening is sure to be a perfect companion to our G. K. Hardt production of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof.

Featuring Courtney Arnold, Laura J. Davies, Sheila Lichirie, Rebekah Patti, Paige Picard, Jacquelyn Wells, Jessica Short and Lito Briano as Tennessee Williams.

Reviews

"Director Lennie Dean's staging was adventurous and effective...The spellbinding visual impact of this play is due not only to the efforts of the performers and director, but to those of the technical staff...There are stunning effects by April George...sound design by Craig Miller effectively recalls 1930s New Orleans jazz and street sounds...Erika Hauptman's costumes are evocative of the era..."
