Synopsis:
This solo play, arranged and performed by Jeremy Lawrence, catches Tennessee Williams at work, with the Ink Spots on the stereo, a trick in the bedroom, and fighting off his "blue devils" by revisiting the past through his notebooks.the famed author of a Streetcar Named Desire, Vieux Carre, and the Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here anymore creates a new memory play for himself by playing with memories that are sometimes hilarious, sometimes painful as he seeks to meet the one challenge he sets for himself each morning: to go on working because it is his life's great joy.
