A Streetcar Named Desire

Passion. Desire. Madness. Survival.

by Tennessee Williams

Directed by Chris Carpenter

Traditional values clash with modern realities in this timeless masterpiece.

Considered Tennessee Williams's finest work, A Streetcar Named Desire follows Blanche Dubois, a fading Southern belle who is staying with her sister, Stella, in boisterous New Orleans. When she meets Stanley, Stella's overtly masculine and working-class husband, tensions between the pair rapidly and violently come to a head in the claustrophobia of their cramped living quarters.

Join us for this powerful tale of desire and destruction as Blanche realises that the present holds no hope and the past is inescapable

Age recommendation: 14 + or at parental discretion. Themes of sexual and domestic violence.

This amateur production of "A Streetcar Named Desire" is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
