The road leads a young wandering musician to a small town, where the skeletons in the closets of respectable families number in the dozens, frenzied passions boil, and the seeds of crimes ripen... An aging, alcoholic actress and her temporary gigolo companion are absolutely unhappy and ingeniously poison each other's lives. But if the former star can only live in the past, the gigolo nurtures plans for a better future... In a Mexican hotel, a group of tourists gathers, including a former Protestant priest who had a nervous breakdown and becomes the center of attention for several ladies... The priest's daughter has been in love with a young man since childhood, who is literally obsessed with inner demons. He reciprocates her feelings, but both fail to notice how the gradually emerging cruel darkness within him leaves a mark on her life... This collection includes four legendary plays by Tennessee Williams: "Orpheus Descending," "Sweet Bird of Youth," "The Night of the Iguana," and "Summer and Smoke," united by themes of destructive love and haunting loneliness in a crowd.
