A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
by Tennessee Williams
Monday, September 20th at 7:30pm
FREE ADMISSION - call 510.843.4822 for more info
moderated by Michael Mansfield, Aurora's Education Director
Our season to celebrate Tennessee Williams begins with A Streetcar Named Desire, written in 1946, a play that takes us into the deep recesses of the human heart and asks us to face some of our least attractive (but most honest) human emotions, not unlike the gauntlet thrown by Alice Childress in her Trouble in Mind, 9 years later. Led by Education Director, Michael Mansfield.
Conceived and developed by Aurora Artistic Director Tom Ross, the Aurora Script Club will meet four times during the company’s season for a moderated discussion with a theatre professional. Each script selection will be announced at least four weeks prior to its corresponding event.
