THEATER SPOTLIGHT Cat on a Hot Tin Roof

At the Drury Lane, the stage is steaming with Tennessee Williams' Cat on a Hot Tin Roof—a torrid tale of a closeted gay man mourning the death of his beloved while his wife smolders with frustration. Director Marcia Milgrom Dodge's arsenal includes a killer cast ( Matt DeCaro as Big Daddy, the patriarch of a deeply damaged Southern family; Anthony Bowden as his tormented son Brick and Genevieve Angelson as Maggie the Cat, Brick's sexually relentless wife ). The Deep South drama is heightened by the haunting, atmospheric vocals of Donita Lynn. All through, it's a sizzler. It runs through Aug. 26 at Drury Lane Theatre, 100 Drury Lane, Oakbrook Terrace. $43- $58. DruryLaneTheatre.com . |
