Streetcar Named Desire (short scene) CASTING 6/28 7-9 pm

I'm casting for the roles of Stella Kowalski and Blanche DuBois from the play, A Streetcar Named Desire by Tennesse Williams for my SVA directing class. This is a multi-ethnic production. We will be presenting 4-5 pages of the play to the class and a master shot will be filmed. Actors will be rehearsed and blocked, be off-book, costumed (basic) and provided with any props needed for the action.

CASTING 6/28 7 - 9 pm: Prosper Studios, 1080 Fulton, Brooklyn, NY 11238

Blanche's flirtatious Southern-belle presence causes problems for her sister and her husband, who already have a volatile relationship, leading to even greater conflict in their household. (Google)
