By Tennessee Williams
Directed by Alan Brodie (MFA Candidate)
“I can’t expose a human weakness on the stage unless I know it through having it myself.” - Tennessee Williams
Summer and Smoke is Tennessee Williams at his most passionate. Welcome to Mississippi at the turn of the 20th century and the small town of Glorious Hill. Alma, the daughter of a small-town minister and mentally unstable mother, harbours a life-long infatuation with her restless and self-indulgent neighbour, John. Alma and John’s struggle between body and soul, anarchy and order, love and lust leads to profound changes in both their lives. A true American masterpiece, Summer and Smoke is a bittersweet exploration of love and longing with unforgettable characters that break our hearts even as they touch our souls.
Summer and Smoke is presented by arrangement with Dramatists Play Service, Inc. on behalf of The University of the South, Sewanee Tennessee.
Recommended for ages 13 and up.
