[QUOTE="Barbara On A Broomstick, post: 438305, member: 21"] From FB Tennessee Williams On March 24, 1955, Tennessee Williams' CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF opened on Broadway at the Morosco Theatre. Ben Gazzara was Brick and Barbara Bel Geddes was Maggie. The production was directed by Elia Kazan. Brooks Atkinson of the New York Times wrote: " 'Cat on a Hot Tin Roof" is the work of a mature observer of men and women and a gifted craftsman. To say that it is the drama of people who refuse to face the truth of life is to suggest a whole school of problem dramatists. But one of the great achievements is the honesty and simplicity of the craftsmanship. It seems not to have been written. It is the quintessence of life. It is the basic truth. Always a seeker after honesty in his writing, Mr. Williams has not only found a solid part of the truth but found the way to say it with complete honesty. It is not only part of the truth of life: it is the absolute truth of the theatre." CAT ON A HOT TIN ROOF received the Pulitzer Prize. [ATTACH type="full" width="370px"]58700[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
