Cat on a Hot Tin Roof chronicles the epic drama of the Pollit family, headed by the household patriach, Big Daddy. Set in a plantation house in the South, the play revolves around a number of family conflicts that are both physical and emotional in nature. The play opens on a family gathering to celebrate the sixty-fifth birthday of Big Daddy. The play's focus is Big Daddy's favorite son, Brick and alcoholic, and his wife Margaret - better known as Maggie the Cat. Brick is too consumed by alcohol to pay attention to anything, neither the petty issues that annoy his wife, or the ineritence of the plantation. HIs brother, Gooper, and his wife Mae, however, are intent on a plot to win Big Daddy's favor - and control of the plantation. What follows is a complex drama with an underlying thread of evil that effects the entire family.
