‘A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE’. Tramlijn Begeerte is a top classic from the Amerikaanse Realisme. It tackles some of the most unpleasant social and psychological themes: narcissism, alcohol addiction, domestic violence, and rape. Yet it is one of the most performed and beloved plays in theater. Precisely because it is so truthful. Because all roles are such a challenge for actors, who can shine through the lifelike dialogues and character drawings. Through the emotions, which strike the stage like whirlwinds. And through the final chord, brutal and heartbreaking. The piece is 75 years old and still a contemporary cry from the heart.
“A classic that lets actors shine through lifelike dialogues and emotions that strike the stage like whirlwinds.”
