Tennessee Williams 1982

An evening of two, little known, one-act plays by Tennessee Williams, both written in 1982, the year before the playwrights death. Directed by Cosmin Chivu (2013 revival of Tennessee Williams’ The Mutilated), Tennessee Williams 1982 features the world premiere of A Recluse and His Guest and New York Premiere of The Remarkable Rooming-House of Mme. Le Monde. These two chamber pieces epitomize the theatrical imagination the playwright employed throughout his long writing career combined with the freedom he found later in life. Crisply written black comedies, these fierce plays center on the demands of unlikely human relationships in exotic locales fraught with tension.
