Content Advisory: Mature Audiences

Viewer discretion is strongly advised. A Streetcar Named Desire contains partial nudity, domestic violence, racist language, discussions of child abuse and suicide, and sexual assault.

A Streetcar Named Desire was written in 1947 by Tennessee Williams, a queer southern writer with the deepest empathy and wildest imagination. He sought to express the dreams and nightmares of the most extraordinary and marginalized amongst us. This play contains descriptions and depictions of violence (both gendered and domestic), rape, incest and the use of racial and cultural stereotypes. All of the characters are deeply flawed and searching for truth through the era in which they were created.
