A Streetcar Named Desire

Production Season: 2006-2007

A Streetcar Named Desire, the classic play by Tennessee Williams, tells the feverish story of the pathetic mental and emotional demise of a determined, yet fragile, repressed and delicate Southern lady born to a once-wealthy family of Mississippi planters. Her impoverished, tragic downfall is showcased in the squalid, cramped and tawdry French Quarter one-bedroom apartment of her married sister and animalistic brother-in-law.  Truly one of America’s most famous plays.
