Background and Themes
Suddenly last summer takes place in the American South in the 1930's, which heavily influences the ways in which many concepts were dealt with. Psychology and social perceptions of queer identity have evolved so much that it can be difficult to understand where they stood in the 1930s. In this section we aim to provide some context to actors, designers, and attendees, so that they can better understand the world within which Suddenly Last Summer resides.
