Critics Say

“You could picture Williams beaming at the performers' indomitable attitudes and freewheeling physicality... giving international creative voices a platform. This is a troupe and a show worth hearing.”
The Washington Post

“The Tennessee Williams Festival, St. Louis was a resounding success. I have never seen such an assemblage of talented actors, directors and production people who came together to show why St. Louis is indeed a fortunate city.”
St. Louis Post Dispatch

“St. Louis has another beautiful flower blooming in its theatrical garden.”
Ladue News

“The Event of the Year. ...The Tennessee Williams Festival was something to behold and a marvelous moveable feast. ...This whole week gave me an eerie feeling. I could feel the presence of the playwright...in all of the productions and the spaces... Everyone involved brought a regal feeling to this Love Fest and it became a respectful and insightful slice of life to St. Louis theatre. Thanks to Carrie Houk and all who brought this series of special moments to life.”
Stage Door St. Louis

“Tennessee Williams was decades ahead of the rest of us in his brilliant stage poetry. And each new glimpse into his lega- cy calls us...to move forward in astonishing spiritual honesty. The Tennessee Williams Festival is the only guaranteed way to reach theatrical Nirvana in 2017.”
