The Milk Train Doesn't Stop Here Anymore

By Tennessee Williams

Described as an allegory and a ‘sophisticated fairy tale’, the play takes a look at the final two days in the life of Flora “Sissy” Goforth, a legendary diva (and former Ziegfeld showgirl), whose last exotic summer is consumed with an effort to dictate her memoirs before she dies, a Mediterranean summer disturbingly interrupted by the appearance of a handsome young poet, known to play companion to wealthy old women as they near death.

“Tennessee Williams’ most arresting drama…” —NY Daily News

“Fascinating tragi-comedy.” — NY Mirror
