  • The First Critical Assessments of a Streetcar Named Desire: the Streetcar Tryouts and the Reviewers
    FALL 1991 45 The First Critical Assessments of A Streetcar Named Desire: The Streetcar Tryouts and the Reviewers Philip C. Kolin The first review of A Streetcar Named Desire in a New York City paper was not of the Broadway premiere of Williams's play on December 3, 1947, but of the world premiere in New Haven on October 30, 1947. Writing in Variety for November 5, 1947, Bone found Streetcar "a mixture of seduction, sordid revelations and incidental perversion which will be revolting to certain playgoers but devoured with avidity by others. Latter category will predomin­ ate." Continuing his predictions, he asserted that Streetcar was "important theatre" and that it would be one "trolley that should ring up plenty of fares on Broadway" ("Plays Out of Town"). Like Bone, almost everyone else interested in the history of Streetcar has looked forward to the play's reception on Broadway. Yet one of the most important chapters in Streetcar's stage history has been neglected, that is, the play's tryouts before that momentous Broadway debut. Oddly enough, bibliographies of Williams fail to include many of the Streetcar tryout reviews and surveys of the critical reception of the play commence with the pronouncements found in the New York Theatre Critics' Reviews for the week of December 3, 1947. Such neglect is unfortunate. Streetcar was performed more than a full month and in three different cities before it ever arrived on Broadway. Not only was the play new, so was its producer. Making her debut as a producer with Streetcar, Irene Selznick was one of the powerhouses behind the play.

    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE CONTACT: Ellen McDonald 816.444.0052 or 816.213.4355 [email protected] FOR TICKETS: Box Office at 816.235.2700 or www.KCRep.org. Kansas City Repertory Theatre Announces Acclaimed Cast for The Diary of Anne Frank Jan. 29 through Feb. 21, 2016 at newly renovated Spencer Theatre Kansas City, MO (Jan. 5, 2016) – Kansas City Repertory Theatre’s Artistic Director Eric Rosen is pleased to announce the cast of The Diary of Anne Frank, directed by Marissa Wolf, KC Rep’s Director of New Works. The play, based upon Anne Frank: The Diary of a Young Girl, was originally written for the stage by Frances Goodrich and Albert Hackett. In 1997, Wendy Kesselman published a revised version of Goodrich and Hackett’s Pulitzer Prize winning script, which integrated some of the more personal aspects of Anne Frank’s story that remained untold in the original script. Peer into the world of a family in hiding and a gifted young writer who came of age during the horrors of the Holocaust. Through Anne’s eyes, we see the prevailing hopes of a girl who – despite everything – inspired generations with her unwavering faith in humanity. This production begins Friday, Jan. 29 and runs through Sunday, Feb. 21 at KC Rep’s newly renovated Spencer Theatre. Kansas City Repertory Theatre Announces Cast for The Diary of Anne Frank Jan. 29 through Feb. 21 at Spencer Theatre Page 1 “This work by Wendy Kessleman is stunningly lyrical and poetic,” stated Wolf. “My hope is that KC Rep audiences will connect intimately with Anne as a budding young woman and all that goes with a young and emerging heart, in spite of the world looming outside.” The ensemble cast, drawn locally as well as from across the country, includes: Daniel Beeman as Peter Van Daan, Martin Buchanan as Mr.
