The Night of the Iguana (2007 Season)

Reverend Shannon referred to God as a "senile delinquent" during one of his sermons and therefore was institutionalized for a "nervous breakdown." After his release, Shannon obtains employment as a tour guide for a travel agency. Before the opening of the play, Shannon is accused of having committed a statutory rape of minor Charlotte Goodall, in his current group of tourists.

 They arrive at a cheap hotel on the coast of Mexico that had been managed by his friends Fred and Maxine. Fred died recently and Maxine Faulk has assumed sole responsibility of hotel manager. Shannon tries to manage not only his tourists, who have turned against him, but also Maxine, who is interested in him for purely carnal reasons. Adding to this chaotic scenario, virginal woman, Hannah Jelkes, appears with her grandfather, Nonno, who is in the midst of composing his last poem. Like the Iguana, captured and tied to a pole by the Mexicans in the play, they have come to the end of their rope.
