Synopsis
“THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA poses critical questions of faith and identity that are particularly relevant today as we navigate a dangerously alienated world where true intimacy and social connection struggle to survive. Describing this epic as ‘a play about love in its purest terms,’ Tennessee, in his embrace of taboo and his empathy for characters living on the edge as they seek refuge, offers a merciful answer. La Femme is thrilled to render New York’s first 21st century production, directed by the Tony award winning Emily Mann, herself a creative leader of the stage.”
