Larger than life – a fable, a Greek tragedy, a comedy, a melodrama – the Tony Award-winning The Rose Tattoo is a valentine from Tennessee Williams to anyone who has ever been in love. In the midst of her anger and grief over news that her late husband had been unfaithful, Serafina delle Rose is courted by a Sicilian truck driver who has the virile body of her husband and the face of a clown – his name, Mangiacavallo, means “eat a horse” in Italian. Teary-eyed, he declares, “I am a human being that drives a truck for bananas.” His clumsy flirting unlocks Serafina’s fiery passion, wit and eventually, her capacious love.
