Williamstown Again Williams' Town in Summer of '25

By Stephen DravisiBerkshires Staff
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — The Williamstown Theatre Festival has announced a 2025 season with five full-scale productions, including two world premieres and two revivals of dramas by Tennessee Williams.
 
The summer festival lists the five productions on its website, which provides no information about dates and says tickets go on sale "in March."
 
In addition to two of his own works, Williams' influence is seen in one of the new works planned for the summer season, according to the WTF.
 
Williams, a Pulitzer Prize winner, was to have been included in the WTF's aborted 2020 season with a production of "A Streetcar Named Desire."
 
After the COVID-19 pandemic forced the cancellation of that season, the festival made its production available on a streaming service.
 
His canon has been a longtime staple of the festival, including a 1999 production of "Camino Real" on the Main Stage. Williams himself had a summer residency in Williamstown in 1982, one year before his death.
 
"Camino Real" returns for 2025 along with a production of "Not About Nightingales," one of Williams' earliest works, which he penned in 1938.
