In Bed With Tenn at Promenade Playhouse

In 1980 President Carter presented Tennessee Williams with the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the highest award the government can give to a civilian. As Carter gave the award, he said, "Tennessee Williams has shaped the history of American drama. From passionate tragedy to lyrical comedy, his masterpieces dramatize the eternal conflict of body and soul, youth and death, love and despair. Through the unity of reality and poetry Tennessee Williams shows that the truly heroic in life or art is human compassion." Now, thirty years later the Promenade Players pay homage to the man whose works are still stimulating and challenging audiences all over the world. The mission of the Promenade Players is "to produce work that is challenging, thought provoking and entertaining." In Bed with Tenn fulfills that mission.
