  Encyclopedia: Night of the Iguana
Tennessee Williams' Iguana is the antithesis of Albee's Seascape: Instead of loving couples reflecting on their relationships, Iguana has nymphomania and doomed love affairs.
Tennessee Williams' own memories of Night of the Iguana, according to his 1975 book Memoirs, are of "the longest and most appalling tour I've had with a play," largely due to some sexual dalliances and a hospital stay after being bitten by a dog.
As they share a witching night on a sweltering Mexican patio, in Tennessee Williams' 1961 play "The Night of the Iguana," the two are yin-yang opposites designed for maximum dramatic effect.

 The Night Iguana Left Home   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-09-17)
When her funds dwindle, Iguana takes a dishwashing job, only to learn to her horror that the restaurant's Friday night special is iguana stew and the chef's run out of his principal ingredient.
The story is wittily wild (but the iguana facts -- she separates from her tail while fleeing the restaurant's dog -- are all sound science), the pictures burst with our heroine's grand style and pluck, and the ending -- courtesy of the U.S. Postal Service -- is happy for all.
I found it a bit sad that the iguana was able to leave her friend/owner so easily to go off on an adventure on her own.

Sascha is 4, I am not, and Iguana is the heroine of ''The Night Iguana Left Home,'' by Megan McDonald, illustrated by Ponder Goembel, a book we are reading in the shade of an ylang-ylang tree.
Iguana's story is a familiar one: she was living contentedly in Schenectady, N.Y., at the home of her ''friend and almost sister,'' Alison Frogley, who provided a closet with a heating pad, a free library card, a personal e-mail address and plenty of anchovy pizza.
Nowadays, Alison mails Iguana to Key West in a very long (six and a half feet) box containing a heart-shaped pillow embroidered Iguanna, and twice a year Iguana mails herself back for a visit with her true friend.

Better than most of his plays, The Night of the Iguana succeeds in it's treatment of lost souls, and the meeting of two people destined for loneliness and disappointment.

 Jens Bjorneboe on Tennessee Williams
To be sure, it has roots in all of Tennessee Williams' production—which includes poems, short stories and at least one novel; but here it is natural to look for those roots in the genre which has made him world-famous, in the drama.
Williams' fundamental theme is cruelty in three variants: The cruelty of human beings (the masses' cruelty to the individual), the cruelty of nature (in the animal-organic processes themselves), and the cruelty of God (as the one responsible for the whole cosmic-metaphysical system of cruelty, hunger, decay and death).
It is there, but not as a human being; this time the role is left to the image of the two iguanas, two huge lizards who are caught and are to be eaten.
