Lesson+Plan

== =Lesson Plan for "A Streetcar Named Desire" by Tennessee Williams=

My eleventh grade students will take a week to learn about a true American classic in "A Streetcar Named Desire" written by Tennessee Williams.This play is about two warring people which represented two classes that seemed to be clashing when this play was written: the old southern character in Blanche DuBois, and the newer urban/industrial class in Stan Kowalski. This will help them better understand how theater was relevant then, and how plays from the past are relevant today as well.
