Albury Wodonga Theatre Company is presenting the classic play, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, in the intimate space of the  Olive St Theatre in South Albury.  Cat on a Hot Tin Roof premiered on Broadway in 1955, winning the Pulitzer Prize for Drama. Set on a plantation in the Mississippi Delta, the intense, three-act, family drama takes place over the course of one evening in the home of self-made, wealthy cotton tycoon Big Daddy Pollitt. The family is holding a party to celebrate his 65th birthday and his apparent clean bill of health, after being checked at a clinic. In fact, all the family – except Big Daddy and Big Mama – know that he is dying.

There are plenty of secrets flying around this big old house, and it’s going to take a bit of friction, more than a few drinks and some harsh revelations to bring out the truth.
