The Theatre of Tennessee Williams, Vol. 3: Cat on a Hot Tin

The Theatre of Tennessee Williams, Vol. 3: Cat on a Hot Tin Roof / Orpheus Descending / Suddenly Last Summer

Volume III of the series includes Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), Orpheus Descending (1957), and Suddenly Last Summer (1958). The first, which won both the Pulitzer Prize and Drama Critics Award, has proved every bit as successful as Williamâ€™s earlier A Streetcar Named Desire. The other two plays, though different in kind, both have something of the quality of Greek tragedy in 20th-century settings, bringing about catharsis through ritual death.
The Theatre of Tennessee Williams brings together in a matching format the plays of one of the Americaâ€™s most influential and innovative dramatists. Arranged in chronological order, this ongoing series includes the original cast listings and production notes.
