ABOUT


 Rebecca Frecknall’s revival of an often neglected Tennessee Williams play enjoyed a sold out run at London’s Almeida Theatre and later transferred to the Duke of York’s in the West End.

Scored for nine upright pianos surrounding the stage, the music was performed live and from memory by a cast of actor musicians, weaving through the narrative and revealing the inner demons of Alma, the play’s protagonist.

Winner of the Olivier Award for Best Revival

Starring Patsy Ferran and Matthew Needham.
