If you missed the production of Tennessee Williams' classic play, The Night of the Iguana during the Festival, don't worry, you can still catch one of the three performances this week at Le Petit Theatre.

The Night of the Iguana is Williams' robust and persuasive plea for endurance and resistance in the face of human suffering. The earthy widow Maxine runs a hotel on a Mexican cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean where the defrocked Rev. Shannon, his tour group of ladies from a West Texas women's college, the self-described New England spinster Hannah and her ninety-seven-year-old grandfather, "the world's oldest living and practicing poet," a family of grotesque Nazi vacationers, and an iguana tied by its throat to the veranda all find themselves assembled for a rainy, turbulent night.

The show's run continues into this weekend with three additional shows at 7:30 p.m. Thursday, Friday and Saturday, April 1-3, 2010 at Le Petit Theatre.
