LOS ANGELES - Orpheus Descending, play.
Gale Harold, Denise Crosby, Claudia Mason star in the rarely produced
Tennessee Williams classic. Heating up Theatre/Theater (yes, that's it's
name,) this winter, a modern version of the story of Orpheus and
Eurydice set in the American South, is one of Williams' more complex
plays. Guitar-playing drifter Val Xavier arrives in a small town looking
for work and the opportunity to renounce his wild ways, where he meets
Lady Torrance, a woman with a tragic past who longs for rebirth. Orpheus
Descending explores the power of passion, art, and imagination to redeem
life and return it to meaning. Orpheus Descending - Gale Harold (Queer
as Folk), Denise Crosby (Star Trek TNG), and cover girl-turned-actress
Claudia Mason (Vogue, Elle, W, Cosmopolitan) head the cast of Tennessee
Williams' classic.
