Happy birthday, Tennessee Williams

We will soon be celebrating the 100th anniversary of the birth of th great playwright Tennessee Williams. Wtat comes to mind when you hear his name? I'd be surprised if it weren't either "Stella!" or "I have always depended on the kindness of strangers".

So, in your organization does the best Stella? the most evocative Kindness? Invite colleagues and coworkers and whomever else you think might be interested and have them channel their inner Stanley and/or Blanche. Have people participate individually or as a group and wth as much dramatic flair as they can muster - Streetcar has been a play, a movie and recently an opera - it lends itself to dramatic flair!

Enjoy!

  1. What comes to mind when I think of Tennessee Williams? Rumor has it that he went to my high school in University City, MO. (Suburb of St. Louis). Supposedly, he failed English. But when I went there (1963-65), the teacher who had failed him in English was still teaching English.
