“I made the discovery – love. All at once and much, much too completely.”

The Big Easy is anything but for Blanche DuBois, the quintessential creation of Tennessee Williams’ classic tale of lustful deceit and the longing for redemption. On the run from her mysterious past, the destitute Blanche arrives on the doorstep of her younger sister Stella who is pregnant with her first child. Desperate for attention and demanding the devotion that has forever eluded her, Blanche inserts herself between the mother-to-be and her hot-blooded husband Stanley and sparks a flame of passion and possession that cannot be contained and can only consume everything in its path.
