Saturday, October 25, 2025, from 2:00 - 3:00 pm.Followed by a short Q/A. New York director David Kaplan presents actors Luke Philip Bosco, John Dennis Anderson, and artist/actor Laura Shabott, in collaboration with Berta Walker Gallery, and the Tennessee Williams Festival.From Director David Kaplan: This is a performance event with Laura Shabott practicing her own version of Lee Krasner's 1976 breakthrough moment cutting up her early Provincetown drawings then reassembling them into new artwork, along with related scene work written by playwright Tennessee Williams and performed by three actors. We will be drawing a parallel to what Williams did in the late 1970s by reconfiguring his realistic 1940 Provincetown one-act, The Parade, into the surreal full-length play Something Cloudy, Something Clear.From Artist/Actor Laura Shabott: In 2014/15, Provincetown Tennessee Williams Festival Curator David Kaplan directed me to hold a live chicken while playing a kazoo as the character Frederika in Jane Bowles' play In the Summer House. We have collaborated in projects ever since. Lee and Tennessee was workshopped at the Fine Arts Work Center in 2024 and we are thrilled to perform at the Cape Cod Museum of Art. The piece centers around a brief moment in 1940, when Jackson Pollock and Lee Krasner, pre-lovers, pre-marriage, were basking on a beach in Provincetown with Tennessee Williams just moments before Kip Kiernan, Williams’ adored, unrequited lover, shatters the playwright by breaking up with him. This moment-in-time is the ethos of Lee and Tennessee.
