Mutilated, The, de Tennessee Williams

sinopsis

Written in 1938 and based on an actual newspaper story the play follows the events of a prison scandal which shocked America when convicts leading a hunger strike were locked in a steam-heated cell and roasted to death. Williams later said: "I have never written anything since that could compete with its violence and horror." Its sympathetic treatment of a Black character and of a transvestite might have kept the play suppressed and unproduced during its own time. But its flashes of lyricism and compelling dialogue presage the great plays Williams was yet to write.
