Provincetown Tennessee Williams Event
By Charlotte Robinson, September 14, 2024
The Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theater Festival is celebrating its 19th season September 25th to 29th in Provincetown, MA. The opening play will be The Glass Menagerie on Wednesday September 25th that Williams wrote partially at The A House in Ptown. Live performances of festival plays include Something Cloudy Something Clear, Suddenly Last Summer, Green Eyes, Flight (adapted from a short story by Williams) & Tennessee Rising a play about Tennessee Williams. There will also be a screening of In the Room Where He Waits a gay horror film from Australia inspired by The Glass Menagerie. Marcy Feller, President of the Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theater Festival Board stated, “The Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theater Festival is coming around again, on Thursday - Sunday, September 26 - 29 with an opening preview performance of The Glass Menagerie on Wednesday September 25. On Saturday & Sunday the 28th & 29th, as part of A Supply of Summer, I will have the pleasure & privilege of incarnating the remarkable Valeska Gert, a German-Jewish dancer & avant garde performer who fled the Nazis & came to Ptown where she befriended Tennessee Williams. I hope you will buy your tickets for this event & 6 live Williams’ plays, plus a new queer, supernatural film inspired by The Glass Menagerie” I had the pleasure & honor of meeting Tennessee Williams when I wired him for sound at WCVB-TV in Boston where he appeared on the “Good Day Show” back in the 1970’s. He was wearing his trademark seersucker blue & white suit topped off with a fabulous fedora hat a memory I’m fortunate to have etched in my mind forever.
