About This Show

A double-bill of infrequently performed one-acts by Tennessee Williams.

Portrait of a Madonna is an early, poignant, and eerily beautiful sketch of the character who would become Blanche DuBois, while The Gnädiges Fräulein is considered one of the most successful of his mid-career experiments in style, a heartbreakingly yet hilarious ode to the indomitability of the human spirit and what many believe to be a thinly disguised allegory of his own creative life.

Performed in repertory with Night and Day.
