Cat on a Hot Tin Roof |
London theatre |
A powerful Southern
family gathers at a birthday celebration for patriarch Big Daddy
(James Earl Jones), who does not know that he is dying of cancer.
In a scramble to secure their part of his estate, family members
hide the truth about his diagnosis from him and Big Mama (Phylicia
Rashad). Tensions mount between alcoholic former football hero
Brick (Lester) and his beautiful but sexually frustrated wife
Maggie "the Cat" (Sanaa Lathan). As their troubled
relationship comes to a stormy and steamy climax, a shockwave of
secrets is finally revealed.
Brimming with trademark emotional intensity and insightful wit, Cat
on a Hot Tin Roof is an American treasure.
Don't miss this bold new staging of Tennessee Williams' rich and
timeless family portrait.
