Clarksville, TN – Looking for a night out? Make plans to join the Roxy Regional Theatre for their production of Tennessee Williams’ Pulitzer Prize-winning classic A Streetcar Named Desire, opening at the Roxy Regional Theatre this Friday, February 14th, 2025, at 7:00pm.
Sara Fetgatter (who was last seen on our stage in the Vietnam War drama A Piece of My Heart) stars as fading Southern belle Blanche DuBois, who moves to New Orleans where her sister Stella (played by Kat Scherer, whom you may remember as Shelby in Steel Magnolias) and her brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski (Neil Brown) barely live above squalor in the French Quarter.
Directed by Emily Ruck and featuring Eboné Amos, Jahel Duran Diaz, Carter Hoffer, Angie Morales-Link and Evan Taylor Williams, the play reveals to the very depths the character of Blanche DuBois, a woman whose life has been undermined by her romantic illusions, which lead her to reject—so far as possible—the realities of life with which she is faced and which she consistently ignores.
The pressure brought to bear upon her by her sister, with whom she goes to live in New Orleans, intensified by the earthy and extremely “normal” young husband of the latter, leads to a revelation of her tragic self-delusion and, in the end, to madness.
