Blanche du Bois, a woman whose life has been undermined by her romantic illusions, rejects the realities of life in front of her and constantly ignores. The pressure brought to bear upon her by her sister, Stella with whom she goes to live in New Orleans is intensified by the earthy and extremely "normal" young husband of Stella. This leads to a revelation of Blanche’s tragic self-delusion and, in the end, to madness. A tragic and effective drama which ranks as one of the greatest in our theatre.
