SUDDENLY LAST SUMMER

by Tennessee Williams

Directed by Brenna Geffers with her Philadelphia-based Die-Cast Ensemble

@ The Unitarian Universalist Meeting House

Running time: 75 minutes

Suddenly Last Summer is a memory play by Tennessee Williams in which memory recovers trauma. The festival’s production, directed by Brenna Geffers with her Philadelphia-based
Die-Cast Ensemble, celebrates gathering the power of memories — and the consequent joy of releasing memories into the world.

This is a highly unusual approach to the text: memory-positive, in which recalling trauma is healing.

DOCTOR: Go on with the vision, Miss Catharine.
CATHARINE: Oh, I’m going on, nothing could stop it now!!
