Company, a nonprofit professional theatre company located in Camden, New
Jersey announces its first annual fundraising event titled GREEN EYES
in New Orleans: An Afternoon with Tennessee Williams. For one day only

regional premiere of GREEN EYES an erotic one-act play written by
Tennessee Williams, directed by Joseph Paprzycki and staring Tasha
Milkman and Eric Endsley. Also featured during the fundraiser are
musical performances by Philadelphia Jazz vocalist Miss Justine Keeys to

GREEN
EYES takes place in the New Orleans hotel room of a honeymooning couple
as a young solider on leave from the Vietnam war and his new bride wake
up the day after their wedding with questions and accusations about
what happened in the alcohol fueled night before. Written in 1970 GREEN
EYES was not published or produced until 2008, and since has only had
limited performances in Massachusetts and New York. South Camden Theatre
Company brings the play to the stage at our home at Waterfront South
Theatre for this special one day fundraising event and regional premier
of the play.
Tickets for the event are available for purchase for $100 individually or $150 per couple online at http://www.southcamdentheatre.org , by calling 1-866-811-4111. This fundraising event is intended for mature audiences only.
Producing
Artistic Director Joseph M. Paprzycki states, "I am so proud to bring
this regional premiere to our audience at SCTC having seen two different
productions of the play at the Provincetown Tennessee Williams Theatre
Festival. This is a newly discovered work that shows Tennessee Williams
steamy, poetic writing with raw sexuality you won't soon forget."
The
fundraising event will be held Sunday afternoon September 8, 2013 from
2:00 p.m. to 5:30 p.m. at the 96-seat Waterfront South Theatre located
