A tropical storm brewing up the coast, a political storm looming in Europe, and the passions of the characters meet head-on in Williams' powerful and savagely funny play.The professional cast includes familiar local favorites Agnes Harty, Robin Bloodworth, and Tim McDonough alongside Emory student actors. The production is directed by Janice Akers.Set design by Sara Culpepper; light design by Robert Turner; costumes by Sydney Roberts; and sound design by Elizabeth Waldman.
