Curtain Call: A Streetcar Named Desire

On Friday, October 8 and Saturday, October 9, Tennessee Williams’s landmark 1947 play A Streetcar Named Desire will come to John A. Logan College’s O’Neil Auditorium. Mike Seagle will direct the production.

Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama in 1948, Streetcar depicts the complex relationship between fading Southern belle Blanche DuBois and surly New Orleans urbanite Stanley Kowalski. Praised for its brutal depictions of sex and violence, it provided the inspiration for the 1951 Elia Kazan film starring Marlon Brando and Viven Leigh.

Performances start at 7 p.m. Tickets are $12 for general admission and $5 for Logan students and children twelve and younger. For tickets to all Logan events, or information about auditions for in-house performances, contact Logan's Office of Student Activities at (618) 985-2828 ext. 8287 or visit <http://www.jalc.edu/activities>.
