A one night only event: four actors perform Tennessee Williams’ masterpiece in an entirely new space. A theatrical high wire act with America’s greatest play. You’ve never seen Streetcar like this before, and you never will again.

With theaters across the country struggling to keep their lights on, there is a vital need to create new, economically viable models for the art form. Working class artists must reclaim a central role in the creation and presentation of their own work.

In that spirit, director Nick Westrate and an ensemble of four astonishing New York theater actors (Lucy Owen, Brad Koed, Mallory Portnoy and Will Rogers) set out to create a version of A Streetcar Named Desire like none other. Presenting Tennessee Williams’s complete, unabridged text with just four performers- no props, no set- this production can exist in any space. It strips bare to the bones the greatest piece of American drama.

A Streetcar Named Desire is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. and is presented by special arrangement with the University of the South Sewanee, Tennessee.
