In the HBO series “True Blood,†Joe Manganiello plays Alcide, a sensitive but strong-minded Louisiana werewolf. Now he’s starring as a very different kind of wolf, the brutish Stanley Kowalski, in the Yale Repertory Theater revival of Tennessee Williams’s 1947 drama “A Streetcar Named Desire.†In this scene, Stanley talks to his wife, Stella, about how their life will return to normal once her Southern belle sister Blanche, who has been staying with them at their New Orleans apartment, finally leaves. The production opens on Sept. 26 and continues through Oct. 12.
Recent videos in this series include Hallie Foote in a scene from the Signature Theater production of “The Old Friends,†a family drama written by her father, the playwright Horton Foote, and Jon Norman Schneider in the National Asian American Theater Company revival of Clifford Odets’s “Awake and Sing!,†which recently closed at Walkerspace.
