DIE GLASMENAGERIE
von Tennessee Williams

Ich liebe die Stücke von #TennesseeWilliams, ihre besondere Stimmung, die komplexen Charaktere… Ich bin gespannt, wie der in diesem Stück besonders präsente Symbolismus umgesetzt wird.

Frida painted 143 works from a bed she couldn't leave. Tennessee Williams wrote 30 plays while gay in the South. Saeed Jones won the Kirkus Prize. They made beauty while the world told them not to. The thread doesn't break; it changes hands. From Stonewall to the Equality Act passing the House in 2025, we inherit the practice. Keep going. The work outlives the noise. #FridaKahlo #TennesseeWilliams #QueerHistory #Resilience #Art #Literature #EqualityAct #History

"The strongest influences in my life and my work are always whomever I love. Whomever I love and am with most of the time, or whomever I remember most vividly. I think that’s true of everyone, don’t you?"

~ Tennessee Williams, born today, 1911.

Tennessee Williams
DIE KATZE AUF DEM HEIẞEN BLECHDACH
Deutsches Theater
Großartige Schauspieler, fein inszeniert, ein Abend, der sich gelohnt hat.
Und einer der Schauspieler, der an einem grippalen Infekt leidet, spielte trotzdem, aber zum Schutz seiner Kolleg:innen mit Maske. 👏👏👏 Hab ich so auch noch nicht erlebt.
#TennesseeWilliams #DT #Schauspiel #DeutschesTheater

Tennessee Williams' psychologisch sezierende Theaterstücke liebe ich sehr. Und auch wenn sie schon einige Jahrzehnte überdauert haben, lassen sie sich immer wieder neu und spannend interpretieren.

Heute geht es also ins geliebte Deutsche Theater in
DIE KATZE AUF DEM HEIẞEN BLECHDACH
Sehr gespannt...

Finally been to the #theatre again. The #GlassMenagerie by #TennesseeWilliams. Minimalist production in one of Bonn's smallest but (in my opinion) most ambitious theatres. Wonderfully accompanied by music from #TwinPeaks (!) and #LanaDelRey. Loved every second of it. Stood up at the applause because it was well deserved.

Little life update because I know I'm very quiet here at the moment. But I'm here. Feel hugged. 🖤

@theautisticcoach @actuallyautistic
It feels like a game of chicken, but instead of dueling cars, we’re dueling realities.

“When one monster meets another monster, one monster must give way!
AND IT WILL NEVER BE ME!”
— #TennesseeWilliams, SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH

3 things about José Quintero’s THE ROMAN SPRING OF MRS. STONE [1961]

1. “When the time comes when nobody desires me for myself, I’d rather not be desired at all.”
2. She counters with $750 but Mrs. Stone holds firm at $500.
3. Folding the set of keys into her handkerchief.

This ought to be better known. No matter how you interpret the ending, it's incredible.
