A Streetcar Named Desire

In the sweltering heat of New Orleans summer, a woman’s grip on the world begins to slip. When Blanche arrives at her sister Stella’s doorstep, desperate and out of options, her complicated past ignites a smoldering tension within the walls of the stifling apartment. And all the while, Stella’s husband Stanley—played by Paul Mescal with unique “swagger and sensitivity” (The New York Times)—stalks the truths that Blanche so desperately wants to keep buried. Soon, Blanche’s meticulously constructed facade begins to crack and peel, offering an intimate and compelling picture of darker currents pulsating underneath.
