SUDS Presents: Summer and Smoke


  • The Cellar Theatre, Sydney (map)

Summer and Smoke
By Tennessee Williams

10-13 and 17-20 August
The Cellar Theatre

"What you have here is not the anatomy of a beast, but a man."

A Minister’s daughter’s beliefs are thrown into question when a romance blooms with a young off-the-rails doctor. As she strives for something beyond the tangible, something greater than taste or touch or sight, her life and the lives of those she loves are thrown into chaos.

Appropriated to urban Sydney circa 2016 and heavily scored with a mix of classical and electro-dubstep music, Summer & Smoke reinvents a masterpiece by one of the great American playwrights to question the value of conservatism to a modern audience.

With: Bec Attanasio, Max Baume, Tess Green, Harriet Lugsdin, Christie New, Dominic Scarf, Caitlyn Sinclair, Michael Sun, Eloise Westwood
