What led Tennessee Williams to become the most groundbreaking and unique playwright of the twentieth century? Tennessee Rising: The Dawn of Tennessee Williams explores the formative six-year period from 1939-1945 in which an unknown writer named Tom metamorphosizes into the acclaimed playwright known as Tennessee. The solo play brings these unknown years center stage as the audience becomes friend and confidant to young Williams as he experiences the unexpected highs and devastating lows of his early career, wherein his most iconic character emerges: himself. This solo play, returning after critically acclaimed engagements Off Broadway and at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe, is written and performed by Jacob Storms and originally directed by Alan Cumming.
Show Notes: Please note that there is also a $25 per person food/drink minimum at all performances.
