The summer theatre event of New Orleans: Tennessee Williams’s exuberant masterpiece of passion, humor, and the courage to love again.#Theatre #Tennessee-Williams #Plays #Comedy #Drama
Passion blazes hotter than the Louisiana sun in The Rose Tattoo, Tennessee Williams’s most joyful and life-affirming love story. In a tight-knit Gulf Coast community bursting with laughter, music, and desire, a grieving widow rediscovers the power of love when a wild, big-hearted truck driver crashes unexpectedly into her world.
Written as a tribute to Williams’s own great love, The Rose Tattoo overflows with sensuality, humor, and Southern heat — a story of loss, longing, and the courage to love again.
This is the summer theatre event of New Orleans: vibrant, funny, and deeply human — a celebration of life, love, and the poetry of passion that only Tennessee Williams can deliver.
Join us for the Handweavers Guild of America, Inc.'s Keynote Lecture with Karen Hampton.
