		From April 13 through April 16, "Summer and Smoke" will serve as the feature attraction at the Moreau Center/Little Theatre as Saint Mary's presents this tour de force for their 1999 - 2000 Theatre & Dance Season.
		In "Summer and Smoke," Dr. John Buchanan tells Miss Alma, "We're trying to find something, but we don't even know what it is." Such statements drive the play as they force the audience to question what course of action should be taken.
		A year ago, Katherine Sullivan, a professor who teaches a literary seminar on Tennessee Williams at Saint Mary's College, chose the play "Summer and Smoke" for this year's Theatre and Dance Season.

		Summer and Smoke to Shutter on 25 November at the Apollo Theatre
		Instead, this Summer and Smoke gives us the contours of the play—and Williams completists will quite rightly grab the chance to add it to their repertoire—without the roiling emotional content; I left the theatre notably dry-eyed.
		It's not just because Summer and Smoke went on to be revisited by its author under the title Eccentricities of A Nightingale (of which a long-ago TV version, with Blythe Danner and Frank Langella, lingers in the memory) that one nonetheless is left yearning for a shade more individuality, eccentricity even, to Pike's performance.

	Summer and Smoke - Music from the Movies
		Summer And Smoke is Williams’ only period play, set in a small delta town in WWI era Mississippi, and deals with the conflicted relationship between Alma, a repressed minister’s daughter, and Johnny, the bad boy next door.
		Thus Bernstein is dealing with both the period background and the sacred/profane conflict that is the core of script and screenplay.
		The period mode does not, however, limit Bernstein, and the modern sensibility of the play is suggested in the score’s sometimes Bartokian embellishments (‘Summer Thoughts’), and the quirky treatment of traditional waltz rhythms.

	Summer and Smoke by Tennessee Williams
		"Summer and Smoke" is an allegory of the body and soul, of air and earth.
		The stone effigy is a reminder that time flows incessantly forward: Only in the end do they switch roles, he seeing the importance of the soul and serving others, she discovering her true' sensuality.
		Often considered one of this famous author’s most highly regarded works, Summer and Smoke follows the relationship between a somewhat puritanical Southern girl and an unpuritanical young doctor in 1916 Mississippi as they deal with divergent attitudes toward life.

	Essays.cc - Tennessee Williams` Summer And Smoke
		The most striking feature of Tennessee Williams Summer and Smoke as performed at the Guthrie Theater was the transformation of the characters.
		Summer and Smoke illustrates the transformation of the human mind and body through eloquent symbolic subtleties that are present through out the play.
		The second possible meaning for smoke is also shown in the second to the last scene where John points at the anatomy chart and try's to explain to Alma that he has come around to her way of thinking, that there is a soul in the human body.

	Summer and Smoke
		He is the finest master of the dramatic metaphor since Ibsen (the meanings of both "summer" and "smoke" here open poetically).
		Tennessee Williams’ Summer and Smoke is not often performed but I can’t understand why.
		It is an elegy to the cruelty of frustrated love, and it shows how sometimes the virtuous path can lead to ruin, the ruinous to virtue, and how the two can fail to collide.

	KDHX Theatre Review - Summer and Smoke (Site not responding. Last check: )
		The latest production of Tennessee Williams’; 1948 play Summer and Smoke is at least ninety percent poetic morality tale, and maybe ten percent blunt instrument.
		With all due respect to the memory of Miss Hepburn, Williams drags us in, not down: with a cool regard for all the world’s stony angels, and with the balletic precision of his dialogue.
		Summer and Smoke continues at the Emerson Studio Theatre through October 12, 2003, Wednesday through Saturday at 7:30, and Sundays at two p.m., 130 Edgar Road, in Webster Groves.

	Rosamund plays it cool\| Theatre \| This is London
		Summer And Smoke dates from Williams's great period of The Glass Menagerie and A Streetcar Named Desire, whose frightened and passionate heroines have striking points of emotional and sexual similarity with Alma.
		Set in Williams's Mississippi heartland in 1916, Summer And Smoke delivers a metaphysical and romantic message about the uses and abuses of sex that resonates today.
		That message is transmitted through Alma, a sweet girl in her twenties whom Williams terms "prematurely spinsterish", all a flutter with nerves and laughter, agitations and palpitations.

	University Theatres updates 'Summer and Smoke' with Williams' revision
		But instead of the "Summer and Smoke" script that was produced on Broadway 50 years ago, the UI department of theatre arts has now decided to present Williams' preferred revision of the story and characters, a script that he titled "The Eccentricities of a Nightingale."
		In his forward to the published script of "The Eccentricities of a Nightingale," Williams wrote: "I wrote (the revision) in Rome one summer and brought it with me to London the fall that 'Summer and Smoke' was about to be produced there.
		"The Eccentricities of a Nightingale" uses the same characters and the same locale as "Summer and Smoke," but Williams wrote, "I think 'The Eccentricities of a Nightingale' is a substantially different play from 'Summer and Smoke,' and I prefer it.

		"Summer and Smoke" is neither his best nor his worst, but a rather tepid middle.
		The difference between "Summer and Smoke" and "Streetcar," between a writing exercise and a great play, is that "Streetcar's" Stanley and Blanche are more than just symbols of flesh and spirit, lust and transcendence, brutality and empathy.
		In "Summer and Smoke," the characters are overtly symbolic figures.

	Bloomberg.com: Muse
		A different slice of the U.S. south falls under the creative scalpel in ``Summer and Smoke,'' a play from a dramatist, Tennessee Williams, who knew firsthand the Mississippi terrain where his wistful 1948 work is set.
		That quality turns out to be exactly what's missing from U.K. director Adrian Noble's low-voltage West End premiere, at the Apollo Theatre, of a neglected Williams play (though Amanda Plummer won extensive praise for her Alma in an American production of ``Summer and Smoke'' seen in Hartford, Connecticut, earlier this fall).
		``Summer and Smoke'' continues at the Apollo Theatre, see http://www.seesummerandsmoke.com or call (44) (870) 890-1101.

	Summer and Smoke. @ Rice Bowl Journals
		Tennessee Williams's SUMMER AND SMOKE meditates on the flesh and the spirit, symbolically exploring their conflict and the role they play in human happiness.
		We witness here the damaging effect of embracing one at the expense of the other, for in the end we are left with the idea that one must complement the other if our lives are to be fulfilled.
		This is Williams on a par with "The Glass Menagerie" and "A Streetcar Named Desire." -- NOTE: This is the acting edition of the play and differs slightly from the reading edition, which includes a deleted prologue showing John and Alma as children.
