Evoking themes of aging and beauty, hypocrisy, greed, sexual repression and cannibalism, the play is also the one that the author himself considered his most poetic.  On a hot, steamy afternoon you’ll find Violet Venable and her niece Catherine waging battle in a war that will cement the legacy of Violet’s son Sebastian. Was he a brilliant artist, devoted son or sexual predator?   Island City Stage is extremely excited and proud to be producing our first Tennessee Williams classic.
