The friendship that Anna Magnani and Tennessee Williams shared over 25 years embodied the ancient artist-muse paradigm, and would inspire three of Tennessee s masterpieces - THE ROSE TATTOO, ORPHEUS DESCENDING and SWEET BIRD OF YOUTH. With a lyricism that blurs the lines between art and life, ROMAN NIGHTS alternates between biography and poetic rumination, creating an inspirational and informative evening of theatre that nourishes the mind and soul. As they make their way through the labyrinth of fame from Hollywood to New York to Rome, Williams and Magnani wrestle with their demons - both real and imagined - from greedy agents and producers, through betrayal by friends and lovers, to the ravages of age and addiction. ROMAN NIGHTS experiments with form and style, mixing segments of film, music and photography with live theatre to capturing the Golden Age of theatre and film and the excitement of the La Dolce Vita era.T0278776264Producer Samcor Productions.
