Set against the lush, suffocating heat of a Puerta Vallarta hillside. Williams’ sweeping drama explores the fragile human need for connection, the burden of the past, and the desperate search for meaning at the edge of everything. By turns darkly comic, heartbreaking, and profoundly tender. The Night of the Iguana stands as one of the great American plays. A work of blazing humanity from the master of the American stage.
Some people, they just go to pieces.
Others — they don’t.
Produced by special arrangement with Concord Theatricals.
