The Los Altos Stage Company proudly presents a steamy, southern tale of greed, mendacity, sexual desire, repression, death and decay. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof by Tennessee Williams opens January 23 and runs through February 16 at the Bus Barn Theater in Los Altos.
Widely acknowledged as the playwright’s personal favorite, this Pulitzer Prize-winning drama set in the Mississippi Delta, tells the story of Brick Pollitt, an aging and alcoholic former football hero, his vivacious wife Maggie, and their struggle to navigate their rocky relationship. On a hot summer evening, while the entire Pollitt clan gathers to celebrate the 65th birthday of Brick's father, Big Daddy, the fragile veneer of Southern Gentility strips away as unpleasant truths come to bear.
