Dominican presents "The Night of the Iguana"

Dominican University’s Performing Arts Center will host three performances of The Night of the Iguana by Tennessee Williams.

The performances will be held at 7:30 p.m. on Friday, April 13, and Saturday, April 14, with a 3:00 p.m. matinee on Sunday, April 15, in the Martin Recital Hall on Dominican’s Main Campus, 7900 Division Street, River Forest.

This Tony Award-winning play by two-time Pulitzer Prize-winner Tennessee Williams is an intense drama, full of biting wit and sexual tension. Set against the steamy background of sub-tropical Mexico, The Night of the Iguana is the story of a conflicted defrocked minister and the women who fight for his body and soul.

Scraping by as a two-bit tour guide, besieged by inner demons, he wrestles with the passions of the women around him—the wrath of a Texas school teacher, the advances of a lustful teenager and the jealousies of the widowed hotel owner—while he seeks solace with a new arrival, a gentle spinster traveling with her grandfather.

General Admission tickets are $15. Student tickets are $5. Free on-campus parking for the event is available.
