Paul Mescal will star in a new revival of A Streetcar Named Desire off Broadway, reprising his award-winning performance from London. The production will make its U.S. debut at the Brooklyn Academy of Music this spring, with exact dates to be announced. He reprises the leading role of Stanley Kowalski in A Streetcar Named Desire from director Rebecca Frecknall's (Cabaret on Broadway) in London's West End in 2023. The show won three Olivier Awards there, including Best Revival and Best Actor for Mescal. Tennessee Williams's play takes place during a New Orleans summer, when fading Southern belle Blanche comes to visit her sister, Stella, and Stella's husband, Stanley. Reality and illusion collide as Blanche tries to escape her past, which Stanley is determined to unravel.
