Synopsis
One of the great theatre pieces of US literature, from the 20th Century.
This was Tennessee Williams’ personal favourite.
Many of you will remember the film version starring
Elizabeth Taylor and Paul Newman.
Set in the early ‘50’s in a plantation home in the Mississippi Delta, it is the story of a Southern family in crisis,
especially Brick and wife Margaret (usually called Maggie or "Maggie the Cat"),
and their interaction with Brick's family over the course of one evening's gathering.
There is also comedy and warmth as the gripping story unfolds.
