TENNESSEE WILLIAMS (1911-1983)
As a Playwright, it was HENRIK LBSEN who had the greatest
impact on Tennessee Williams. Williams learned Scandinavian literary dialect
used by Lbsen to better understand his plays. He suffered from depression, and
feared ging mad. He was briefly institutionalised in 1969 after a severe
nervous breakdown, and never forgave his younger brother for allowing his to be
put into a madhouse.

Dr Challoner's Grammar School have contextualized A Streetcar Named Desire by putting a Young Cast in the roles that had adult play, they also brought a tiny bit of modern day aspects to the production, Another thing that they did was that Students Produced and Directed the play which added it's very own twist to the production.
