A Streetcar Named Desire

This seminal work of modern American drama, recently translated by Ester Žantovská and incisively directed by Anna Davidová, tells the familiar story of two sisters and the clash between desire and reality, presenting it as an infamous, futile struggle between over-cultivated helplessness and fierce, animalistic aggressiveness. The roles of Blanche du Bois and her brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski are played by Pavlína and Jiří Hejcman, respectively.
