Troubadours of Daytime Go Classic

The Troubadours of Daytime are back! On Saturday, November 7th at 2pm, and Sunday, November 8th at 8pm, Judith Chapman (Gloria), Christian LeBlanc (Michael) and Emily O'Brien (Jana) will join forces with Alley Mills (Pamela, The Bold and the Beautiful) and her husband, the legendary Orson Bean, for a staged reading of Tennessee Williams' "The Night of the Iguana" at the Rogue Machine Theatre. More actors are in negotiations. The play will be directed by Elina de Santos. The theatre is located at 5041 Pico Blvd, Los Angeles, California.

Full passions flood through Tennessee Williams' award-winning play, a story of tormented souls finding moments of intimacy and relief in an exotic setting in Mexico. Certainly, Williams' ability to expose the heart of the human condition is profoundly evident in what is thought to be his last great work. First performed on December 28, 1961, on Broadway in the Royale Theatre, "The Night of the Iguana" won Williams his fourth New York Drama Critics Award. Like other plays by Williams, The Night of the Iguana focuses on sexual relationships and odd characters, including one crippled by his desires, the Reverend Shannon. Indeed, in retrospect, many critics see "The Night of the Iguana" as the link between stylistic eras (early/middle to late) for Williams. They argue that Williams reveals more of himself in this play than his previous work. Indeed, unlike many of Williams' plays "The Night of the Iguana" ends on a positive, hopeful note.

Fans can mingle at the reception that follows the reading on both days. Don't miss the opportunity to enjoy time with some of your Y&R favorites, witness a great drama and raise awareness about the Rogue Machine Theatre in Los Angeles, California.
