Sandy Actors Theatre presents A Streetcar Named Desire By Tennessee Williams Directed by Jeffrey Puukka
Summer in New Orleans. Stanley and his wife Stella are intoxicated by each other, and just beginning their lives together. Then Stella’s sister Blanche drifts in from somewhere else, like a wilting flower afraid of the sun. As she moves into their cramped apartment, the temperature climbs and temperaments clash. Suddenly there’s a growing gap between the way each saw themselves, and the life they’re actually living.
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize, Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire is sly, steamy, and severe. What must be sacrificed for life to feel livable?
