For the first time ever, the theater company will present two masterpieces of American theater—Arthur Miller’s
Death of a Salesman and Tennessee Williams’ A Streetcar Named Desire—in rotating repertory. They’ll have the same cast, but performances will switch day to day.

Theater nerds will understand what a tall order this is. We’re talking memorable characters like Willy Loman, Blanche DuBois, Stanley Kowalski, and themes like the collapse of the American dream and fantasy’s inability to overcome reality. Not exactly light fare.

Artistic director Vincent Lancisi said in a news release that he didn’t know of any other theater company who had attempted these two plays in the same way. “You will truly experience the art of transformation as they move seamlessly between the two shows and their two characters,” he said.

Also in the
2015-16 season, Everyman Theatre is introducing a salon series on Monday nights where the women of the resident company will curate and direct readings of some of the 20th century’s greatest plays written by women. There’s also works by award-winning playwrights August Wilson and John Patrick Shanley.

But we’re anxiously awaiting the time between April 5 to June 12, 2016, when we can catch the rotating repertory.
