AN AMERICAN CLASSIC… A DREAM CAST… A MAJOR THEATRICAL EVENT.
This explosive new production of TENNESEE WILLIAMS’ Pulitzer Prize-winning classic features a dynamite cast led by Academy Award® nominee TERRENCE HOWARD, Tony Award® winners PHYLICIA RASHAD and ANIKA NONI ROSE, and Academy Award nominee and two-time Tony winner JAMES EARL JONES. Renowned director and choreographer DEBBIE ALLEN directs.
In Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, a powerful Southern family gathers at a birthday celebration for patriarch Big Daddy (Jones), who does not know that he is dying from cancer. Family members hide the truth of Big Daddy’s diagnosis from him and Big Mama (Rashad) as they scramble to secure their part of the family fortune. Front and center as tensions mount are alcoholic former football hero Brick (Howard) and his beautiful but sexually frustrated wife Maggie "the Cat" (Rose); as their troubled relationship comes to a stormy and steamy climax, a shockwave of family secrets are finally revealed.
Brimming with the playwright’s trademark emotional intensity and insightful wit, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is an American treasure. Don’t miss this bold new staging of Tennessee Williams’ rich and timeless family portrait.

Ben Brantley from the New York Times calls it, “A melodrama of Southern-fried mendacity, blessed with temptingly juicy roles. DEBBIE ALLEN wisely pushes past the issue of race. ANIKA NONI ROSE grasps Maggie’s hard-driving sense of purpose with riveting firmness and clarity. Her take-charge energy and unembarrassed directness make this Maggie a stimulating presence. She is FIERCELY CHARGED.”

Actor-model Boris Kodjoe will sub for Terrence Howard from April 15 to May 22! Terrence Howard will return on May 23.
