A woman with long curly blonde hair stands in front of a screen door, a bare lightbulb hanging in the background behind her. The lighting makes her seem purple. A man stands in the blurry background looking at her.

About NT Live: A Streetcar Named Desire

Gillian Anderson, Vanessa Kirby and Ben Foster lead the cast in Tennessee Williams’ timeless masterpiece, returning to cinemas this summer. As Blanche’s fragile world crumbles, she turns to her sister Stella for solace – but her downward spiral brings her face to face with the brutal, unforgiving Stanley Kowalski.

From visionary director Benedict Andrews, this acclaimed production was filmed live during a sold-out run at the Young Vic Theatre in 2014.

Please note: the screening on Sunday 22nd June will include descriptive subtitles.
