With Nuts!

Vieux Carré is a raucous haunting drama in which a young writer comes to terms with sexual identity, and a doomed young straight couple come to terms with their passion and mortality. In 1939, Tennessee Williams landed in the French Quarter of New Orleans (the Vieux Carré of the title) where he was immediately inspired to capture the wonders of the city in poetry, short stories, and one-act plays. By 1977 Williams wove his memories of the Big Easy into a full length play. The Festival's production, set in a ‘70s disco, is performed by a New Orleans-based ensemble, directed by Dennis Monn, whose staging of Brecht/Weill’s Mahagonny Songspiel wowed the 2021 Festival.
