MAPA’s 2026-27 Season
Nov 20–Dec 6, 2026
Step into the sultry world of A Streetcar Named Desire, Tennessee Williams’ searing exploration of desire, power, and the lies we tell ourselves to survive. When the troubled Blanche DuBois arrives in New Orleans to stay with her sister Stella and her imposing husband Stanley, buried tensions ignite in a gripping battle of wills. Raw and intimate, this emotionally charged production exposes the fault lines between who we are, who we want to be, and how others see us.
Recommended for ages 13+ due to mature content
Content Advisory: Set in the 1940s, A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE reflects the cultural norms of the time period. Primarily a story of longing, tenderness, and our need to be loved, it also depicts alcohol use, domestic violence, a reference to sexual assault, and a reference to suicide.
Run Time: Approximately 2 hours 45 minutes, including one 15-minute intermission.
