"In a small town in the Deep South of America nothing ever seems to change.
That is, until one day, a charismatic young drifter appears with a snakeskin jacket and a guitar. Like a fox in a hen coop, this wild eyed boy tears up the prejudices and certainties of the town, igniting the passion of Lady Torrance, who for years has been trapped in a loveless marriage. But their freedom and love is too much for such a narrow-minded community..."
Written by Tennessee Williams.
The 2012 Manchester Royal Exchange Theatre production will feature Imogen Stubbs as Lady Torrance.
