The Library of Congress Packard Campus Theatre presents “A Streetcar Named Desire”

Saturday, June 25, 2016 @ 7:30 pm - 10:00 pm

In this outstanding production of Tennessee Williams’ Pulitzer Prize play directed by Elia Kazan, Vivien Leigh portrays the fragile schoolteacher Blanche DuBois who leaves her hometown under mysterious circumstances to stay with her pregnant sister Stella (Kim Hunter) in New Orleans. Marlon Brando gave a stand-out performance as Stella’s brutish husband Stanley who resents Blanche’s presence and accuses her of squandering the family inheritance. Nominated for twelve Academy Awards and winner of four, “A Streetcar Named Desire” was added to the National Film Registry in 1999 and the original soundtrack recording from the film with music composed by Alex North was added to the National Recording Registry in 2015. Free, at the Library of Congress Packard Campus Theater located at 19053 Mt. Pony Rd. in Culpeper, VA. No reservations required. For more information, call 202-707- 9994.
