The characters "Brick" and "Maggie" in Tennessee William's classic three-act play, Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, provide a fascinating study in interpersonal communication and more specifically, attribution theory. They are two people tattered by life, at odds with one another, and yet strangely but permanently attached, one by her fierce will and the fear of being alone, and the other out of utter resignation. The relationship between Brick and Maggie is a complicated one. Attribution Theory provides clues as to how it might be mended. It has been said, "if the foundation is strong, the rest can be fixed". Brick and Maggie show a strong foundation in that they have a long history together, and they have a way of coming together when forces are aligned against them.
