Theater review: Characters pop in solid ‘Streetcar’

“Stella! Stellllllla!”

It’s hard not to smile. Tennessee Williams’ iconic “A Streetcar Named Desire” no longer shocks as it once did, although the impact is still stronger on stage than in the censored 1951 film that made a star of Marlon Brando. University Theatre’s excellent new production revives the outrage.
