Turn up the Heat with

"Cat on a Hot Tin Roof"

at the Jerry Herman Ring Theatre 

OCTOBER 10 – 20, 2007 

The University of Miami's Department of Theater Arts heats up its 2007-2008 Season with Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, Tennessee Williams' 1955 Pulitzer Prize winning classic.

Fueled by wicked humor and sexual tension, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is an unforgettable night of theatre...a play of tremendous dramatic impact and enormous theatrical power. Hypocrisy, greed and secret passions threaten to tear apart a wealthy but dysfunctional Mississippi family in Tennessee Williams' stunning American masterpiece. Cat on a Hot Tin Roof searingly portrays the larger-than-life characters of Maggie "the Cat," her alcoholic husband, Brick, and the dominating family patriarch, Big Daddy.
