Interior Set
Premiering on Broadway with Montgomery Clift and Edmund Gwenn in
leading roles, this comedy is about the triumph of an old sea
captain over a sadistic spinster sister was an early triumph for
Tennessee Williams. Although the home in which she lived and ruled
and the income on which she thrived in piety and pretension were
her brother's, she had got him under her thumb after he had gone on
a binge in the Caribbean, foundered his ship, and suffered the
dishonor of losing his skipper's certificate. The return of the
waif the skipper had brought up, revives his will to fight. His
chance comes when he senses that a deep love has sprung up between
his foster son and his daughter, a love thwarted by the girl's
spinster aunt. The skipper's greatest difficulty lies in overcoming
the fears and reticence that have been instilled in the boy and the
girl.
