In 1947, Broadway’s hottest young writer brought his newest play to the Walnut. It was an exotic, erotic, passionate and dramatic story set in the steamy French Quarter of New Orleans. Blanche DuBois, a faded southern belle, takes us on a journey of delicate indiscretions, lost dreams and bruttish actions into her own madness, aided by her handsome, masculine brother-in-law, Stanley Kowalski.
