I can't wait to see this production in cinemas later this year. Very curious about this rotating set design, too. That element seems to have divided critics, but Anderson has been very well received. And, my God, does she look gorgeous.

I wasn't planning to see the NT live transmission, but I might have to now. I've always been curious about Anderson on stage. She seems to have a rich stage career in England. I thought Ben Foster was pretty bland in ORPHANS last year, but he seems to be making an impression as Stanley, too.
"You travel alone because other people are only there to remind you how much that hook hurts that we all bit down on. Wait for that one day we can bite free and get back out there in space where we belong, sail back over water, over skies, into space, the hook finally out of our mouths and we wander back out there in space spawning to other planets never to return hurrah to earth and we'll look back and can't even see these lives here anymore. Only the taste of blood to remind us we ever existed. The earth is small. We're gone. We're dead. We're safe."
-John Guare, Landscape of the Body

Posted: 7/30/14 at 10:27amThat picture of Ben Foster in the tub is reason enough to see it.

'That picture of Ben Foster in the tub is reason enough to see it.'
I mean...I just...Oh my heavens. It really is one of the hotter pictures I've seen in a loooong time. He's just so...hirsute!

Posted: 7/30/14 at 10:45amI'd love to see Ben Foster in this. He is just so talented. We don't need another production of Streetcar but I wouldn't mind if this transferred.

Posted: 7/30/14 at 11:48amI think they plan to go to New York next year, whether it's Broadway or BAM remains to be seen. Gillian Anderson is in demand so it might be tricky for them to do a 12-16 week run if they opted for Broadway.

Posted: 7/30/14 at 8:34pmDon't the pictures suggest Stanley and Stella have fallen into a buttload of money to afford their new white on white digs? This is the slummy end of the line Blanche has been reduced to? Huh?

Posted: 7/31/14 at 1:47amWill this be available to stream online as well? 3 and 1/2 hours is way too long for me in a movie theater.
