Life in the ‘40s in Provincetown included writers, sailors, booze, the beach, and tales of sexual intrigue.

he war also transformed Provincetown as the Navy based a large number of ships directly offshore with the sailors adding to the party atmosphere. The T great playwright Tennessee Williams frst lived in Provincetown in summer of 1940.

He had been searching for a place to write where he could swim during the day and fnd men for sex at night. Asking around, friends suggested Provincetown. After trying out a few places, he settled on Number 6 Captain Jack’s Wharf at 73A Commercial St. It had been converted into living spaces two decades earlier and in the 1940s, the rooms (all without heat or plumbing) could be rented by the week.

A short stroll to town center...or Tea! 46 Bradford Street | 508.487.0914 59 Williams moved into the old smokehouse with two other men, the heterosexual Joe Hazan, a handsome model for the painter, Hans Hoffman, and Kip Kiernan (real name Bernard Dubowski) with whom Williams would fall passionately and tempes- tuously in love. The three split the rent ($20 per week) between them.

Williams had a Rockefeller scholarship that paid him $100 per month. After paying for his New York sublet, he was left with just $2 per day for expenses. But living was cheap in Provincetown that summer. Williams often was given food by fsherman and when he had to buy provisions, they cost pennies. He rented a bicycle so he could ride to Race Point and Herring Cove, then called New Beach. “The town is screaming with creatures not all of whom are seagulls.” — Tennessee Williams

Williams and Hazan liked the naked stretches beyond the tourist parts of the beach and there are a number of photographs of Williams in the nude. But the main attraction was sex. “Offering a glimpse of Provincetown’s 1940 summer options, Williams noted that he was enamored with a ballet dancer; courted by a musician, a dancing instructor, and a language professor.”

Williams found Provincetown “dominated by a platinum blond Hollywood belle named Doug and a bulldike named Wanda who is a well known writer under a male pen name, the most raffsh and fantastic crew that I have met yet and even I – excessively broad minded as I am – feel somewhat shocked by the goings on.”

74 75 76 77 TALK OF OUR TOWN HIGH ON HOLLYWOOD Starz TV is flming its new drama Hightown here this summer. The pilot begins Carnival weekend when a body washes ashore and is found by Jackie Quiñones, a hard-partying lesbian fsheries offcer (played by Monica Raymund) determined to solve the murder and also save a young woman caught up in the Cape’s opioid epidemic. It’s the most extensive Hollywood flming in town since Norman Mailer’s Tough Guys Don’t Dance in the mid-1980s.

NEW BEACH The 208 space parking lot at Herring Cove Beach tumbled into the bay last winter thanks to years of erosion and heavy storms. A construc- tion project to move it further from the water and raise the elevation began last fall, but Trump’s government shutdown halted work for weeks, causing concern that access to the popular beach might be lost come summertime. Looks like it’ll be ready by July 4 with a landscaped makeover. Planners say the $3.3 million project is built to last for 50 years, but time will tell. Mother Nature often has her own plans.

78 79 TALK OF OUR TOWN BOOTEDGEEDGE The political event of the season takes place on July 5 when South Bend, Indiana Mayor and presidential hope- ful Pete Buttigieg comes to town for a fundraiser and rally at Town Hall. Boston event planner Bryan Rafanelli is organizing the event, at the height of the holiday tourist season. Mayor Pete and his husband Chasten will be the biggest political duo to hit town since Hillary Clinton and Cher appeared together in 2016. Let the clamoring for tickets begin.

PROVINCETOWN 400 Did you know the Mayfower frst landed in Provincetown before the Pilgrims went on to settle Plymouth several weeks later? 2020 marks the 400th anniversary of that landing. A massive replica of the famous ship, the Mayfower II, will sail here that September, and plans are underway for reenactments, concerts, a freworks display, a legacy time capsule, and massive commemorations. A Sunrise toast and bon voy- age will send the ship back to Plymouth.

80 81 TALK OF OUR TOWN SOCIAL CLIMBER Plans for a funicular that will take visitors from Bas Relief Park opposite Town Hall up to the Pilgrim Monument have been put on hold after a neighbor said it would have adverse effects on the value of his property. Debate over the privately-funded cable car transport has been active, with advocates arguing it would provide a valuable “front door” to the monument and opponents worrying about noise, breakdowns, and aesthetics.

IN OUR WATERS A fatal Great White Shark attack took place last September in Wellfeet, a few miles from Ptown. Unwarranted panic began immediately, with some demanding seal hunting be reinstated to cull waters of the predator’s favorite food. The state has since granted $383K to Cape towns Chatham, Eastham, Orleans, Wellfeet, Truro, and Provincetown for stretch- ers, dune vehicles, lifeguards’ satellite

phones and emergency call boxes. Your chances of encountering one of these majestic creatures is slim, but it’s possible. Don’t swim at dusk or dawn (prime feeding time) or near seals.

82 83 WHAT’S UP BUD? The inside dope on cannabis in Massachusetts.

Massachusetts is the frst state east of the Missis- sippi to legalize recreational marijuana for ages 21 and up. Ptown will likely get its frst dispensary this summer. Cannabinoids (THC, CBD, CBN), the active ingre- dients in weed, are used in combination in marijuana products such as fower (bud), vapes, tinctures, edibles, and balms to produce varying effects. THC: Psychoactive, responsible for getting you “high”. CBD: Nonpsychoactive, helpful with pain relief, anxiety. CBN: Psychoactive, resulting from degraded THC, can cause drowsiness. Sativa and Indica are the two main strains of marijuana, with the former having cerebral, uplifting effects while the latter is more sedative and relaxing. continued...

This is the law: Adults can possess one ounce of marijuana on them with no more than 5 grams in concentrate form. Adults can have 10 ounces in their homes, but any amount over one ounce must be locked up. Adults can also grow up to six plants in their home in an area with a lock, in a spot where they are not visible from a public area. You can’t consume or smoke marijuana products in public or in cars, or have an unsealed container with product in the car. Race Point and Herring Cove beaches are part of the Cape Cod National Seashore and so if you decide to light up there, you’ll do so under the jurisdiction of federal authorities. The race is on between competing dispensaries to be frst to get licenses ap- proved and open up shop, and these companies have made leasing commitments here in town.

90 91 (Continued from 60) After fghting over a Yale freshman, Williams and the belle spent the night together. Williams thrived on a combination of alcohol, the beach, and writing while the large numbers of gay men helped his mood. He wrote a friend that “[t]he town is screaming with creatures not all of whom are seagulls.” Some- times, however, he would turn bitter. “Pox on all of them – their Lord & Taylor T-shirts, fowered sarongs, baby blue silk shorts! Portuguese natives have been beating them up on the streets at night lately and I am not sure which side I am on.” Yet he would return to Provincetown several more times.

Even before the war, Provinc- etown was known (at least in some circles) for its LGBTQ drag balls. In 1928, for example, Eugene O’Neil remarked that Provincetown was full of

92 93 gays, and drag queens were big later in the 1930s. Thus, it is not surprising that Williams attended a drag party, though he went in men’s clothing.

During the war the entire town was blacked out at night, so when going into the A-House, one entered through two sets of curtains. Inside there was dancing, sometimes to live music. Heavily gay but not yet offcially so, both men and women went. “Sometimes the frst thing that greeted you was the sight of Madame Pumpernickel, the elderly midget who occasionally played piano for the house band.” In a later visit, Williams lived in Mayfower Heights and in order to avoid a jealous lover, he would take men he picked up at the A-House to the beach for sex. This was how he frst met Frank Merlo, the love of his life.

Williams wrote The Glass Menagerie and A Streetcar Named Desire in Provincetown but not (as rumored) at the A House. Rather, he wrote on the outskirts of town. Williams fnished The Glass Menagerie in the Harvard Law School dormitory room of a man he met in Provincetown. The student was tall, gangly, dark-haired and a beatnik before the trend took off. He said he was straight but easily succumbed to Williams’s attentions and by the time the play was fnished he was full-on gay. By the end of World War II, there were four main groups of LGBTQ people in Provincetown: the partying visitors, the artists, the outsiders who moved in year round, and the born in town group. All got along just fne.
