A Streetcar Named Desire-Show
"Superb." NY Times
"Enthralling" -Variety
"Throbbingly alive, compassionate, heart-wrenchingly human." NY Daily News
Pulitzer and Drama Critics Circle Best Play
Yes, that "Streetcar Named Desire". In 1947, Tennessee Williams wrote a play so towering, so compelling that it changed theater overnight. The shock wave of that Big Bang can still be felt today. Look on any list of the most important American plays and you'll find ‘Streetcar', either at the top or very close. Blanche Dubois, Stanley Kowalski and the rest have become icons of mythic proportions, not only for the great actors that have inhabited their skins, but also because of the mighty and almost primeval story they tell. Stripped of its mythic trappings and layers of literary commentary, ‘Streetcar' is simply gripping drama with unexpected lightning bolts of humor and moments of heartbreaking tenderness. Stage 3's intimate space is perfect for this steaming, sultry pressure cooker. We hope to leave you breathless.
