Come see the Tennessee Williams Play Jim Lande is producing

Classmate Jim Lande is producing a play in New York -- Tennessee Williams' Two-Character Play.

Jim has arranged to have a Yale Class of 1987 night during previews -- Friday, June 14 at 8, with a dinner beforehand at 6.  We will have discounted ticket prices and a prix fixe menu.  More details soon.

In the meantime, here is a short description of the play:


Tony Award winner Amanda Plummer (Agnes of God, Pulp Fiction) and Academy Award nominee Brad Dourif (One Flew Over the Cuckoo’s Nest) unite their white-hot talents for this highly anticipated production of Tennessee Williams’ The Two-Character Play.
Reality and fantasy are interwoven with terrifying power as two actors on tour – brother and sister – find themselves deserted by their troupe. Faced by an audience expecting a performance, they enact The Two-Character Play. As they dip in and out of performance they find it difficult to differentiate themselves from their roles and reality from illusion. Haunting, provocative, and often funny, The Two-Character Play is one of Tennessee Williams’ most personal – and mystifying – works.
