The Theatre of Tennessee Williams brings together in matching
format the plays of one of America's most persistently influential
and innovative dramatists. Arranged in chronological order, this
ongoing series includes the original cast listings and production
notes for all full-length plays. Now available as a New Directions
Paperbook, Volume IV contains a wonderfully diverse collection of
Williams's works. Sweet Bird of Youth (1959) is a dramatic study of
a fading Hollywood actress, who tries to recapture her youth
through a young drifter half her age. In a lighter mood, Period of
Adjustment (1960) tells of the marital troubles of two "Middle
American couples, a departure for the playwright who himself
labeled it a 'serious comedy.'" The Night of the Iguana (1961), in
sharp contrast, tells of human frailty and redemptive strength on
the West Coast of Mexico.
