Theatre 29 will hold auditions for their Spring show, “A Streetcar Named Desire”, on Monday, January 13 at 6:00pm at Theatre 29. Directed by Gary Daigneault, this Tennessee Williams legendary drama center around the experiences of Blanche DuBois, a former Southern belle who, after encountering a series of personal losses, leaves her once-prosperous situation to move into a shabby apartment in New Orleans rented by her younger sister Stella and brother-in-law Stanley. Passions and madness erupt in this Pulitzer Prize winning masterwork.

Auditioners are asked to bring a resume or a list of acting experience and be prepared for a cold read. “A Streetcar Named Desire” will run for nine performances from February 28 – March 16, 2025, with an opening night hosted by the Twentynine Palms Rotary Club.

Because of mature themes the show is not recommended for children under 16.

Tickets are available at theatre29.org.
