Join Karl O'Brian Williams, Miranda Melhado, and Emilio Evans in the American premiere of Alwin Bully's Caribbean drama, McBEE.

Choosing to perform a Tennessee (Thomas Lanier) Williams (1911-1983) play means genuinely committing to some of theater’s most salient aspects: in this case, a plot that must capture and then hold the audience in unfolding layers of tragedy, characters that are complex and often display less-than-desirable human characteristics, believable delivery of modified language to portray a specific region or temperament, performance of disconcerting and sometimes virulent spectacle on a human scale, and production design that rises to the needs of the story. 

In an innovative twist on Tennessee Williams, the Tennessee Williams Theatre Company presents a unique creation perfect for anyone who knows how to get to Sesame Street.
