Concept For Streetcar

I think the design elements should reflect the biggest theme of the show - fantasy vs. reality

Costume wise the colors of the costumes should reflect the amount of realism that the characters hold

-Blanche should be the most vibrant of color -Stella should have color but paler, this indicates her denial of the dangers of Stanley while also showing her more frail and vulnerable personality. She is also not quite on the same level as Blanche. -Stanley should have an absence of color with a costume design in grey-scale -Mitch should be dressed in neutral colors, he is not quite pessimistic and a realist like stanley but is also not a rejectionist of reality in the way that stella, and blanche especially, are.

Color: I think we should work with the red color family in order to represent the romantic and passionate nature of the play

Set Design: -I like the idea of having the house and street be shown in the set design like many have had it before. -Lighting is a key element in this show, light reveals truth, which is why Blanche avoids it throughout the play, so it should be thoughtfully placed in the set. (But we should go over that in detail in person when we meet!) -Let’s also have the set be neutral or work in greys so that the colors we use for costume stand out a lot better and are given emphasis.

This is what I have so far, im not really sure about ads or anything, and i want to talk more about that with samantha anyways since she is the producer! If you guys have any other ideas to think about let me know im open to anything :)
