This great play celebrated the company’s first anniversary, with Marcus D’Amico as Brick, Barry Stanton as Big Daddy and Sandra Reinton in her professional debut as Maggie.
Graeme Messer’s production was acclaimed by press and public alike as the finest production the city had seen for years.
"There are glorious moments in the theatre when the Muses bestow their own incomparable magic on a play and those who perform it. Such was the case last night with a truly brilliant performance from The Birmingham Stage Company, who took the Tennessee Williams masterpiece and showed us the quality of its poetry with definitive performances."
"It takes alchemy to make a steamy Mississippi from a wet night in Birmingham. Only the cicadas are missing."
"Far removed from the hype of Birmingham theatrelands's traditionally glitzy offerings, Cat On A Hot Tin Roof offers something far more honest and interesting. This seamless production crackles with talent and knocks the spots off anything the big boys are doing. Don't miss it!"
