THE GLASS MENAGERIE
By Tennessee Williams
April 18 - May 11
A cornerstone of American theater, this deeply personal “memory play” cemented Tennessee Williams as one of the greatest playwrights of the 20th century. Faded Southern belle Amanda Wingfield fights to keep her family afloat, clinging to a vision of the past and a future she dreams of for her children. When her son Tom brings home a gentleman caller for his reclusive sister Laura, their fragile world shatters like the glass figures she treasures.

TRUE WEST
By Sam Shepard
June 6 - June 29
Sibling rivalry gets real—and really weird—in what’s hailed as “the quintessential American drama.” Austin, a screenwriter on the verge of success, and his petty-thief brother Lee, clash in a darkly comedic, scorching showdown. When Lee hijacks Austin’s pitch, their reunion spirals into a battle for dominance with typewriters and toasters as weapons. Just like the iconic 2000 Broadway production, our lead actors will switch roles throughout the run—a fun reason to catch it twice!

VENUS IN FUR
By David Ives
August 1 - August 24
Tony Award-nominated in 2011, this electrifying battle of wills blurs the lines between reality and fantasy. Vanda, a charismatic and unpredictable actress, confronts playwright Thomas in a late-night audition that spirals into a provocative game of dominance and submission. With sizzling chemistry, witty dialogue, and themes of power and desire, this adult play will keep you questioning who’s really in control. The New York Times called it “90 minutes of good, kinky fun.”

MRS. WHITMAN'S WORDS FOR WOMEN
