    THE PENNSYLVANIA STATE UNIVERSITY SCHREYER HONORS COLLEGE SCHOOL OF THEATRE PRODUCING TENNESSEE WILLIAMS’ A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, A PROCESS FOR DIRECTING A PLAY WITH NO REFUND THEATRE J. SAMUEL HORVATH Spring, 2010 A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for a baccalaureate degree in Finance with honors in Theatre Reviewed and approved* by the following: Matthew Toronto Assistant Professor of Theatre Thesis Supervisor Annette McGregor Professor of Theatre Honors Adviser * Signatures are on file in the Schreyer Honors College. ABSTRACT This document chronicles the No Refund Theatre production of Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire. A non-profit, student organization, No Refund Theatre produces a show nearly every weekend of the academic year. Streetcar was performed February 25th, 26th, and 27th, 2010 and met with positive feedback. This thesis is both a study of Streetcar as a play, and a guide for directing a play with No Refund. It is divided into three sections. First, there is an analysis Tennessee Williams’ play, including a performance history, textual analysis, and character analyses. Second, there is a detailed description of the process by which I created the show. And finally, the appendices include documentation and notes from all stages of the production, and are essentially my directorial promptbook for Streetcar. Most importantly, embedded in this document is a video recording of our production of Streetcar, divided into three “acts.” I hope that this document will serve as a road-map for

A Streetcar Named Desire: Bibliography and Further Reading A Streetcar Named Desire: Introduction A Streetcar Named Desire is the story of an emotionally-charged confrontation between characters embodying the traditional values of the American South and the aggressive, rapidly-changing world of modern America. The play, begun in 1945, went through several changes before reaching its final form. Although the scenario initially concerned an Italian family, to which was later added an Irish brother-in-law, Tennessee Williams changed the characters to two Southern American belles and a Polish American man in order to emphasize the A Streetcar Named Desire 1 clash between cultures and classes in this story of alcoholism, madness and sexual violence.

    TENNESSEE WILLIAMS’ KIND OF THEATER: SIGNATURE AND BIOGRAPHY By NICHOLAS OSBORNE PAGAN A DISSERTATION PRESENTED TO THE GRADUATE SCHOOL OF THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA 1 989 UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA LISRURIffH Copyright 1989 by Nicholas Osborne Pagan ACKNOWLEDGMENTS I am greatly indebted to my mother, my two brothers, and Keitha Wakefield because in 1977 they encouraged me to pursue a BA in humanities and provided me with much-needed emotional and financial support. I am also greatly indebted to Stanley Cook, Steve Evans, Stuart Linney, and Hugh Robertson, all of whom taught at the Polytechnic, Huddersfield, where I began to attend English and philosophy classes. Here at the University of Florida several friends, sometimes knowingly, sometimes unknowingly, have greatly contributed to the development of this dissertation. In particular, I must thank Jesus Mejia, and also William Jernigan and Harvey Molloy. I would also like to thank the members of my supervisory committee: Sidney Homan, John P. Leavey, Jr., Anne Jones, John Seel ye (replaced because of a summer absence by A. Carl Bredahl), and Sheila Dickison. Here Sidney Homan and John Leavey deserve special mention. I am deeply indebted to Sid, my director, because of his boundless enthusiasm for the project and his unflinching faith in my ability to carry it out. I owe a particular debt of gratitude to John who in reading the various drafts, was able to combine a meticulous attention to detail with a concern for i i i the broader issues, forcing me to question my assumptions and be more rigorous.

TEACHER RESOURCE This resource has been created by the Royal Exchange Participation & Learning team. It has been written with Key Stage 3, 4 & 5 Drama and English teachers in mind, but many of the activities can be adapted to suit other subject areas and age groups. The resource aims to enhance students’ understanding of the A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE rehearsal process and spark interesting conversations about the production. CONTENTS PAGE The Play’s Original Context 2 Characters and Themes 3 Concept and Design 8 References 10 1 THE PLAY’S ORIGINAL CONTEXT A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE was a ground-breaking play when it appeared on Broadway in 1947. The post-World War II period was dominated by musicals and revivals of classical texts; the ‘well-made play’ of the 1920s and 1930s did not sit readily with audiences who had lived through the anxieties of the late 1930s depression, and the devastating repercussions of nuclear technology employed during the war. Into this uncertain world came Tennessee Williams’ A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE, which seemed to encapsulate the anxieties of a society in transition. The men who appear in the play and gather around the table to play poker have all fought in the war; Blanche holds memories of her liaisons with off duty soldiers at Belle Reve.

Egy fecske... Amikor egy éwel ezelőtt a kerületi kábeltévé-társaság jóvoltából képernyőmre került a MUZZIK nevű tévéadó, alig hittem a szememnek: zene napi 24 órában a hét minden napján, sztereóban, méghozzá nagyobbrészt klasszikus, kisebb részben pedig jazz, blues és world music. A manapság mindent elárasztó kommersz popzene nem szerepel a kínálatban, sőt reklám sincs. Az egyes műsorokat szellemes, rajzfilmszerű kis klipek választják el egymástól, időnként rövid előzetesek láthatók. A MUZZIK Párizsból sugár­ zott francia és angol nyelvű televízió, mely a hírek szerint sikeres, Európa minden na­ gyobb országában nézhető. Lapunk premisszája, hogy a klasszikus zene és a jazz ha­ sonló, részben pedig azonos közönséget feltételez, feltűnő hasonlóságot mutat a Muz- zik-tévé koncepciójával, így érdemes figyelemmel kísérnünk itthoni fogadtatását.
