ONSTAGE SEATING

“I think the best seats in [the theater], for my money, are on the stage. Everyone gets a different view…but if you’re on the stage, you’re going to see so much of the extra stuff. It’s such a visceral, intimate experience to be up here with them breathing and chasing and fighting right next to you.” —Nick Westrate, director

BroadwayWorld

Tennessee Williams’s exploration of family, sex, death, and decay is a haunting: family, trauma, relentlessly recurring patterns of destruction. It’s about the abuse we heap upon ourselves, and the pleasures we use to forget. In that spirit, director Nick Westrate and an ensemble of four astonishing New York theater actors set out to create a performance of the play like no other. By presenting Tennessee Williams’s complete, unabridged text, with just four performers—no props, no set—this production can exist anywhere. It strips bare to the bones the greatest piece of American drama.
