The Festival celebrates the life and inspiring artistry of Lee Breuer.
Glass Guignol, his dazzling riff on Tennessee Williams’ imagery, played at the 2011 Festival, along with a recap of his poetic staging of A Streetcar Named Desire at the Comédie-Française. In 2015 he and his long-time artistic partner Maude Mitchell joined curator David Kaplan for a conversation about Lee’s provocative productions of Shakespeare’s Lear and The Tempest.
“Tennessee belongs in Provincetown. He lived in Provincetown, he wrote in Provincetown, some of his greatest memories came from Provincetown, one of his deepest loves came from Provincetown. This is where he should blossom’.”
