Revision as of 19:12, 30 June 2008 by 86.44.16.82 (talk) (attempt to clarify per sources)(diff) ← Previous revision | Latest revision (diff) | Newer revision → (diff)The Traveling Companion and Other Plays is a collection of experimental plays written by American playwright Tennessee Williams and published by New Directions in New York City in 2008. It is edited by Williams scholar Annette Saddik, who provides the introduction. The plays are from the last decades of Williams's life, and are markedly different from those for which he is most known, departing from Southern locales, melodrama and naturalism, and showing the influence of Noh theatre and the Theatre of the Absurd. The plays have never before been collected and some are previously unpublished.
