Ride Along With Olympia Dukakis & Co. in The Milk Train Doesn’t Stop Here Anymore

Led by Oscar-winning dynamo Olympia Dukakis in a demanding starring role, Tennessee Williams' The Milk Train Doesn’t Stop Here Anymore tells the story of Flora Goforth, an eccentric recluse who has outlived four husbands and retired to the Amalfi coast to write her memoirs. She is frantically putting her tumultuous, fabulous life on record when a handsome stranger, played by handsome Darren Pettie, shows up unannounced. Broadway.com caught up with Dukakis and the rest of the cast of Roundabout Theatre Company's off-Broadway production at the Laura Pels Theatre, to talk about the laughs and truths of a “tough old bird” looking back at her life, and what makes this play a Williams classic.
