Tennessee Williams returns to a pivotal moment in his stormy youth in Something Cloudy, Something Clear, which introducer Eve Adamson calls 'a delicately woven tapestry of past and present, vulnerability and toughness, impetuous action and mature insight.' Something Cloudy, Something Clear is, as Tennessee Williams stated, 'one of the most personal plays Ive ever written.' Set in Provincetown, Cape Cod, in 1940, the play records Williams experiences during that 'pivotal summer when I took sort of a crash course in growing up.' On the brink of becoming a successful playwright, Williams was also to 'come thoroughly out of the closet' and meet Kip, his first great love. Something Cloudy, Something Clearbrilliantly reimagines that long ago time, now recollected through the filter of all the playwrights successes and failures, joys and regrets. Eve Adamson, director of the original 1981 production, provides an insightful introduction in which she captures the plays heartbreaking appeal: 'It is a delicately woven tapestry of past and present, vulnerability and toughness, impetuous action and mature insight. It seeks a reconciliation between love and art, life and death, andto use two phrases which recur in the playexigencies of desperation and negotiation of terms. The cloudy and the clear.'
