Exclusive: Sheffield Theatres has released production photos of A Streetcar Named Desire currently playing at the Crucible Theatre.

The seminal play, written by Tennessee Williams, is set in the 1940s in New Orleans. It follows Blanche DuBois, a woman seeking refuge with her sister Stella. This revival follows hot on the heels of the returning West End version, which is now playing in New York.
