A wealthy widow mourns the recent loss of her son, a poet. When her niece reveals the son\u2019s true nature and the shocking cause of his death during his summer visit to Spain, the mother rages and stops at nothing to hide the story from the public to protect her son\u2019s reputation. A quintessential Williams drama, this award-winning play has been performed on Broadway, adapted into an Oscar-winning film and revived in theatre with notable actors around the world.&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cSuddenly Last Summer,\u201d a play performed by Sokhumi State Drama Theatre in Tbilisi and directed by the Department of Performing Arts Chair Asst.
