Suddenly, Last Summer
Catharine Holly’s cousin Sebastian dies under mysterious circumstances on a trip to Europe, and Catherine seems to be losing her grip on reality as she deals with her knowledge of the gruesome details of that summer on the beaches of Spain. Desperate to hide the truth, Sebastian’s mother, ferocious and rich Violet Venable engages a research physician and convinces him to take extreme measures to cure Catharine’s insanity. Presented with all-star casts on film with Liz Taylor, Katherine Hepburn and Montgomery Clift (1959), and on television with Maggie Smith, Natasha Richardson and Rob Lowe (1993).

“One of Williams’ wildest, most richly and tightly-written Gothic romances… Startling proof of what a man can do with words; this brief, withering play is a superb achievement.” The New York Times
Something Unspoken
Miss Cornelia is a wealthy matriarch who lives her life with great pomp and circumstance, and a long-time secretary named Grace. Cornelia has held every office of the local chapter of the Daughters of the Confederacy except regent and she desperately wants to be elected. Between phone calls as she tries to manipulate the election, she provokes Grace to acknowledge the complex and codependent relationship between the two women. Adult themes.
