The Fight for Life was the theme of our fourth year. A dozen one-of-a-kind events gathered in Provincetown to respond to Tennessee Williams challenge that theater — to survive as a force for life — needs to be passionate, powerful and disciplined.

"Festival goers were delighted. The box office sported lines most of the four days and many plays were sold out, performance after performance."
- The Provincetown Banner
