Lovely intimate theater, with a thrust stage, so you are in the middle of it. This is the real play, not the Marlon Brando version, so you get to see the real Blanche.

the set was great, and Blanche was superb. But as a whole, the play started to come undone in the second act. It was a preview, so maybe they've cleaned it up a bit by now. Blanche was a little distracted at times though. I liked the intimate setting of the show, but I think that combined with the enthusiasm of some of the actors, made it a little loud at times. Overall a positively fine experience.

I have just seen better productions and so felt negatively about this but I still admire all the hard work that went into this difficult play.

The intimate setting heightened the dramatic tension. The cast did a great job. The play is one of the outstanding works of American literature.
