Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
by Tennessee Williams
Directed by Fred Wolinsky
NOVEMBER 8, 9, 15, 16, 17, 22, 23, 2019

Tennessee Williams’ twentieth century masterpiece. On a steamy night in Mississippi, a Southern family gathers at their cotton plantation to celebrate Big Daddy’s birthday. The scorching heat is almost as oppressive as the lies they tell. Brick and Maggie dance round the secrets and sexual tensions that threaten to destroy their marriage. With the future of the family at stake, which version of the truth is real—and which will win out?
