A trio of TENNESSEE WILLIAMS - An invitation from Fox and Hound Theatre Company
PRESENTED BY SPECIAL ARRANGEMENT WITH THE UNIVERSITY OF THE SOUTH, SEWANEE, TENNESSEE
Three Tales. One Voice. Endless Relevance.Bringing together three intimate and intense narratives—The Fat Man’s Wife, Talk to Me Like the Rain and Let Me Listen, and 27 Wagons Full of Cotton—the production delves into themes of isolation, desire, manipulation, and survival. Each play features a richly drawn female character at its heart, making this showcase particularly resonant for contemporary audiences.
Critical Acclaim“A tour de force of theatre that explores the perennial themes of power, sex, and agency.” — Epigram “Helen Fox… finds the balance of fragility and strength so in evidence in all of Williams’s women.” — British Theatre Guide “Fox and Hound Theatre Company has created a triumph.” — Broadway Baby The Fat Man's Wife: The excitement of Broadway clashes with society's expectations for Vera, the wife, but will she stay with Joe in the penthouse or steer by the stars with Dennis?
Talk to Me Like the Rain and Let Me Listen: Witness a couple trapped in an endless cycle of deprivation. Their emotional scene portrays acceptance of the unalterable, worn-out emotions. 27 Wagons Full of Cotton: Explore the complexities of abuse and a dysfunctional relationship under dire circumstances. This disturbing look at resilience and redemption offers a glimpse of hope in the darkness. Trio - Photo Gallery      |
