Set Design

This is my drawing of the imaginary stage of 'a streetcar named desire'. I would set the stage so that a white-grey-ish brick wall with a cross ladder is encircling the actual stage, which is reduced to a kitchen with a table and a cupboard (with the rum hidden in it) and a foldable bed for Blanche in the closet, separated from the bedroom by a flowered curtain (Blanche exchanged it with a plain one because she wanted to bring more color into the apartment). The bedroom has a bed only, accompanied by a radio and a night lamp. The lamp is currently hidden by the bed, on the other side of it. The radio was stored in the cupboard by Stella because of her husband's bad temper. The bathroom also has a door to the bathroom with a bathtub in it. The bathroom door can be opened, but won't see much happening there. The main action will always happen in these two rooms. On top of the brick wall you can see the two windows of Eunice's apartment. Whenever people are upstairs, the lights will go on and shadows will be visible at the windows but never clear faces or bodies. The reason why the table is the biggest object in the kitchen, is because whenever something important happens, someone will be either having a drink at the table, playing cards or sitting down. The trick with this awesome stage is that when the action only happens in the kitchen, the whole bedroom can be pushed to the side with the curtain, so that it looks like the view is just on the kitchen, but more focused. This will only happen when Blanche's foldable bed needs to be out, or more people have come over for poker, so that there isn't a space issue.
When the action happens on the streets, an extended brick wall can be let down to hide the rooms and let the audience focus on the street. The streets are drawn on the stage in front of the rooms so that it gives the play a sense of motion even though they live in a very enclosed area.
