Hyderabad, July 14: A Streetcar Named Desire, one of the most remarkable plays of our time, was staged at the Shilpkala Vedika in conjunction with Kartaal Productions and Fiama Di Wills on July 10 and 11. This play débuted in 1947 and went on to become one of Tennessee Williams’ best known works. The play revolves around an aging southern belle Blanche Dubois (played by Seema Azharuddin) who has her head in the clouds and has no choice but to face the reality when she visits her sister Stella Kowalski (played by Bhumika Chawla) and working-class brother-in-law Stanley Kowalski (played by K Shrikant Iyengar) in New Orleans. Produced by Seema Azharuddin and directed by K Shrikant Iyengar, the play has an all-Indian cast and crew.
