Tennessee Williams had a distinct talent for writing short plays
and, not surprisingly, this remarkable new collection of
never-before-published one-acts includes some of his most poignant
and hilarious characters: the indefatigable, witty and tough drag
queens of And Tell Sad Stories of the Deaths of Queens...; the
strange little man behind the nom de plume Mister Paradise; and the
extravagant mistress who cheats on her married man in The Pink
Bedroom. Most were written in the 1930s and early 1940s when
Williams was already flexing his theatrical imagination. Chosen
from over seventy unpublished one-acts, these are some of
Williams's finest; several have premiered recently at The Hartford
Stage Co., The Kennedy Center, the Manhattan Theatre Club and the
Tennessee Williams/New Orleans Literary Festival. Included in this
volume: These Are the Stairs You Got to Watch Mister Paradise The
Palooka Escape Why Do You Smoke So Much, Lily? Summer At the Lake
The Big Game The Pink Bedroom The Fat Man's Wife Thank You, Kind
Spirit The Municipal Abattoir Adam and Eve on a Ferry And Tell Sad
Stories of the Deaths of Queens... Long associated with Williams,
acclaimed stage and film actors Eli Wallach and Anne Jackson
provide a fresh and challenging foreword for actors, directors, and
readers.
