A STREETCAR NAMED DESIREby Tennessee Williams
Directed by Kathryn Thomas Anxious, seductive and fiercely clever, Blanche is just about keeping it together. But her arrival threatens Stanley’s entire way of life. As the summer heats up, and the games turn savage, a burning desire threatens to tear their world apart. A bold new revival of Tennessee Williams’ timeless classic, this is a raging portrayal of what it means to be an outsider, in a society where we’re all desperate to belong. One of the most remarkable plays of our time, Tennessee Williams' Pulitzer Prize-winning southern drama comes to life. Blanche DuBois, a faded and delicate Southern Belle, has mysteriously arrived on the doorstep of her younger sister, Stella, and her husband, the sexy yet brutish Stanley Kowalski. Blanche makes herself at home in the couple's small apartment. However, Blanche's web of lies to cover her past soon begins to crumble. Her downward spiral brings her face to face with Stanley, leading to a final plea of passion and desperation that changes them both forever. Over 70 years after it was written, A Streetcar Named Desire is as spellbinding as ever.
