Review: Two By Tenn


Two productions of plays by one of the founding fathers of twentieth century American drama, Tennessee Williams, are set to hit the West End stage in a couple of months time. Thomas Lanier Williams drafted some of the most haunting plays ever written - plays full of the joy, pain and poetry of life that always touch at the heart of raw human emotion. And he created some of the all-time great theatrical roles for women. The West End has seen high quality reincarnations of some of those great female roles in the last few years with stunning performances by Frances O'Connor in 'Cat On A Hot Tin Roof', Victoria Hamilton and Diana Rigg in 'Suddenly Last Summer' and Clare Higgins and Jenny Seagrove in 'The Night Of The Iguana'. In 2007 London audiences will get the chance to see Hollywood star Jessica Lange in 'The Glass Menagerie' (which begins previews at the Apollo on January 31) and Zoe Wannamaker in 'The Rose Tattoo' (which commences previews at the Olivier on March 19).
