THE NIGHT OF THE IGUANA

This blog is based on Tennessee Williams' play, The Night of The Iguana. We will discuss the critical themes of the play, characters, conflicts, symbolism and interpret the play to the best of our knowledge. We will also tackle some of the production history here as well as critical history. FEEL FREE TO COMMENT AWAY!

The Verandah

The play takes place in the summer of 1940 at the Costa Verde Hotel. It sits on a jungle-covered hilltop overlooking the morning beach of Puerto Barrio in Mexico. The play takes place all over the wide verandah of the hotel.
