Although now regarded as two of history's finest American playwrights, back in 1944, William Inge and Tennessee Williams hadn't yet experienced anything close to success. 

The Gentleman Caller, a new play by Philip Dawkins (Charm, Le Switch, The Homosexuals), takes us back in time before the Chicago premier of The Glass Menagerie. Inge, a dissatisfied newspaper critic, invites Williams to his St. Louis apartment fro an interview.

This sexy, fraught rendezvous sparks a relationship, which radically alters the course of their lives and the American Theatre.
