A Streetcar Named Desire

Runs August 14-October 3, 2010 (Opens on August 20) The unraveling of Blanche DuBois plays out within a lily-laced atmosphere of heated passion and pulsing sweat in this classic American play by Tennessee Williams. Settling in with her sister Stella and Stella's husband Stanley, Blanche crafts an image that masks her distasteful secrets. Refusing to bend to his sister-in-law, Stanley soon discovers that there is more to this self-styled Southern belle than she would like to tell. Through its tumult of fantasies, reality and impassioned speeches, A Streetcar Named Desire paints a fascinating tragedy of a woman who struggles boldly against a harsh world, creating a night of truly compelling, intensely emotional theater. By Tennessee Williams. Directed by John MILLER-STEPHANY.
