A Streetcar Named Desire

Date: Tuesday, Apr 17 2018 - Saturday, Apr 21 2018
Venue: Bristol Old Vic
Artists
Tennessee Williams, English Touring Theatre

English Touring Theatre’s bold new revival of Tennessee Williams’ timeless masterpiece is a fiery portrayal of what it means to be an outsider, in a society where we’re all desperate to belong.

Stanley Kowalski is no exception. Until one summer, when his sister-in-law Blanche comes to stay. Anxious, seductive and fiercely clever, Blanche is just about keeping it together. But her arrival threatens his entire way of life.

As the temperature soars and passions intensify, a burning desire threatens to tear their world apart.
