Mike Nichols

Streetcar’ is no longer about the moment at all. There is no Blanche DuBois anywhere; south, north, east or west. We don’t have Blanche DuBois at the moment. But we have Willy Loman; everywhere we look we see Willy Loman. We are Willy Loman. We’re on Facebook; we need to be known; we’re selling all the time.

Mike Nichols

I had a high school girlfriend whose mother gave us theater tickets, so I saw the second night performance of ‘A Streetcar Named Desire.’ My girl and I could not get up during intermission, we were so stunned. To this day it’s the only thing I’ve seen on stage that’s 100 percent real and 100 percent poetic simultaneously.

Branden Jacobs-Jenkins

A Streetcar Named Desire’ is the play I’ve probably read the most times in my life, and I love the weirdness of all the scene outs but especially the end of the second scene, when Williams brings a tamale vendor on stage to simply say, ‘Red hot!’

– Branden Jacobs-Jenkins
