...much as she makes the case for him in public, Karenna is usually more effective offstage. Asked about her, the first thing the Vice President praises, before her "passion for social justice," is her political skills. "She has nearly perfect pitch," Gore says, beaming. Indeed, at 22, in a room full of White House advisers, Karenna came up with the best line for Gore in his debate against Jack Kemp: "If you won't use any football stories," Gore said, "I won't tell any warm and humorous stories about chlorofluorocarbon abatement."

This general malaise is made more obvious in the moments when one of the ensemble truly shines. Perhaps the performers will find their characters in time to salvage them, and the Streetcar will roll on. If not, this production is a respectable introduction to Williams text for those unfamiliar with the play, and a chance for others to revisit a memory or two.

Other funding will come from foundations and individual donors across a narrow span of the political spectrum, from the center to the center left. "Transcending the old categories of left and right," after all, is a favorite rhetorical trope of liberals who are tired of being...
...love affair with the Mississippi blossomed in 1967 when I moved to La Crosse, Wis., to teach fourth grade and feel the passion of those who lived with the rise and fall of the river. The downtown was still a river town, with colorful saloons. Buildings near the river showed the high-water mark from when the Mississippi rose up to remind everyone of its true boundaries.
