A Streetcar Named Desire

What the popular press said...

"A poker game provides one of the few moments approaching excitement in the torpid revival. ... .an exquisite snooze."

Joe Dziemianowicz for NY Daily News

"Blair Underwood's underwhelming performance."
Elisabeth Vincentelli for New York Post

"Embarrassing and sad."
Erik Haagensen for Back Stage

"The revival... is a disappointment, undone by several one-note characterizations."
