A Streetcare Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof
This month’s reads: A Streetcar Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof by Tennessee Williams Join us to discuss these two celebrated works of American drama, first performed and published in 1947 and 1955. These plays explore desire, family conflict, illusion, and the tension between truth and self-deception through the lives of their complex characters. Please note: there are two versions of Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, with different endings. Read whichever one you choose. We will compare the endings at the meeting if members have read more than one version. Also note: we are meeting in Central Park; we will be in Sheep Meadow, just south of Le Pain Quotidien. See the Location section for the exact meeting spot. Please bring a blanket or chair, and any snacks or drinks you would like to share. If it rains, we will meet at the Hugh as usual. Spaces are limited; RSVP required. You are welcome to participate regardless of whether you've finished the plays. Looking forward to seeing you there!
