Tennessee Williams

in

Everyone Expects Me to Write Another "Streetcar"

 

the words and works of Tennessee Williams

arranged and performed by Jeremy Lawrence

 

"Jeremy Lawrence's uncanny and unsentimental depiction of Tennessee Williams as a playwright and man

at the end of his life is thrillingly eerie, on target and life-affirming."   — John Guare

 

 

Tennessee talking and entertaining about the years when the "Streetcar named success" stopped running, but

the writing continued. Drawing on various sources, through anecdote, memoir, poetry, and the plays themselves,

Tennessee muses about the turn away from Broadway, his search for new styles of writing, the battle with the critics,

homosexuality and the gay life style, his breakdown and of course his will to survive. 

"Make voyages! — Attempt them! — there's nothing else..."
