Suddenly, Last Summer


 

Suddenly, Last Summer is a play by Tennessee Williams. It opened on Broadway on January 7, 1958 as part of a double-bill with the Williams play Something Unspoken. The presentation of the two plays was given the overall title Garden District, but 'Suddenly Last Summer' is more often performed alone now.

Analysis

As with many Williams plays, the play incorporates elements from Williams' own life along with elements from the life of his idol, poet Hart Crane. Williams' sister Rose was tragically compelled to undergo a lobotomy at the instigation of their domineering mother.
