The Filigree Theatre opens its sixth season with Tennessee Williams' Suddenly Last Summer, directed by Elizabeth V. Newman. Set in 1930s New Orleans, the drama centers on Catharine Holly, who is pressured to silence her harrowing account of events involving her cousin Sebastian. As powerful forces, particularly Sebastian's mother Violet Venable, work to suppress the truth, the play explores themes of narrative control and the masks that characters wear in society. The cast includes Shannon Grounds as Mrs. Holly, Maddie Scanlan as Catharine Holly, and Linda Nenno as Mrs. Venable.
