A Streetcar Named Desire
The Pulitzer Prize winning drama by Tennessee Williams
Directed by Stuart Meltzer
Content Warning: instances of emotional/physical abuse + sexual violence
In one of the most renowned plays of the American theater, Blanche DuBois, a schoolteacher from Mississippi, arrives in New Orleans and takes a streetcar named desire to the French Quarter, where her sister, Stella, and Stella’s husband, Stanley Kowalski, live barely above squalor. Blanche’s affectations of refinement set her immediately at odds with blue-collar Stanley who is suspicious of the circumstances of her arrival. The Kowalski’s French Quarter apartment becomes a pressure cooker of sensuality and class tensions, until ultimately erupting in some of the most iconic dramatic moments seen on the modern stage.
