My piece for the Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theatre Festival on Camino Real (one of my favorites of Williams’ play) is now online. It’s short, just two paragraphs, but it was a thrill when David Kaplan, the curator and artistic director of the esteemed festival, approached me to write something for their catalog. Here’s a longer piece I wrote about the play on my own site, which is why I attracted the attention of Kaplan.

Nice! Congrats!
Never read that play. I can’t pick a fave Tennessee I like all he does. But of the lesser known plays I really like Orpheus Descending. It’s beautiful. Do you like it?
