Scorchingly Raw ‘A Streetcar Named Desire’ Rumbles Into Town
We’re jolted awake, and into an alternate reality as soon as we take our seats at Island City Stage in Wilton Manors. That loud crashing sound (could it be coming from the train tracks on Dixie Highway?). But then there are clangs and whistles and, ah yes, we realize we are here to see New City Players’ (NCP) production of A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE. And while ten minutes remain till showtime, we’re already immersed in the world of 1947 New Orleans’ French Quarter. Where a trio of women sit languidly fanning themselves onstage or burst into jazz songs and dance. Meanwhile, the sporadic rumble of the loud streetcar will continue, along with musical interludes, to punctuate the drama or breaks between scenes.
