A STREETCAR NAMED DESIRE
COMMON GROUND THEATRE“Stella!” The 1947 Pulitzer Prize-winning play by Tennessee Williams is the feverish story of Blanche DuBois, a complicated simulacrum of a Southern Belle, and her intense visit to the carnal, dark corner of New Orleans where her sister Stella and her brother-in-law Stanley reside. Starting tonight, The Little Green Pig Theatrical Concern presents their erotically charged version of this American classic. For more info, visit www.cgtheatre.com or www.littlegreenpig.com.

SALLY SPRING & AMY SPEACE
THE POUR HOUSEWinston-Salem’s Sally Spring was making Americana music back when it was called the Byrds, while New York’s Amy Speace is a member in great standing of the Americana generation. Her Songs for Bright Street ranges from a folk duet with Gary Louris and the country-rock winner “The Real Thing” to a honky-tonk take on Blondie’s “Dreaming.” The music starts at 7:30 p.m. and tickets cost $6.
