Description: Tennessee Williams' brother Dakin Williams in Streetcar Named Desire Key West Theatre Festival at the Waterfront Playhouse Poster Measures approximately 11 1/4 inches x 17 1/4 inches ( approximately 28.5 cm x 44 cm)According to an October 6, 1993 article in the theater section of the Miami New Times written by Roberta Morgan (excerpts): “…. Closing the first evening, however, was a rare and most unusual treat. Dakin Williams, Tennessee's brother, performed a rib-splitting parody of A Streetcar Named Desire with himself playing Blanche DuBois in full drag. Stanley and Stella stood on the stage silent, their backs to the audience, with only placards to identify them, while Dakin flitted around them, using his brother's famous fey but listless delivery, mercilessly paraphrasing Blanche to great comic effect. Wearing a drab pink housecoat and cheap platinum wig, he was particularly hilarious when he fended off Stanley's attempted rape by saying, "Hey, I've got this cruise coming up…." “ …. Held in three local venues -- the cozy Red Barn Theatre, the Waterfront Playhouse, and the 400-seat state-of-the-art Tennessee Williams Fine Arts Center ..."
