The Gentleman Caller, by Philip Dawkins

November 10-17, 2023

Playwrights have the ability to hide behind their words as they focusing their energy into the pure honesty and candor infuse in the characters they write. Philip Dawkins wrote this brilliant and heart wrenching play, putting the spotlight on Tennessee Williams and William Inge on the cusp of their rise to fame. The Gentleman Caller gives us a very intimate glimpse inside the lives of these famous playwrights and lets us see their hopes, dreams, and fears.

Using the Story Mansion as the venue, the set was already in place. Joe Faifer played Tennessee Williams and Erik Pearson was William Inge, directed by Sasha Kostyrko.
