| | For Kim Hunter, 'Streetcar' is a special trip |
 | | As a Pittsburgh theater-goer, you should have a third: In 1992, Hunter, now 77, was at the Public Theater, playing the patrician mother in A.R. Gurney's "The Cocktail Party" -- very WASP, but with a sly sweetness that kept peeking out from the crisp matron of the play. |
 | | On that panel, Hunter will be joined by Andre Previn, composer of the opera; its director, David Kneiss, a CMU directing grad who is executive stage director for the Metropolitan Opera; and Milan Stitt, playwright and head of the CMU play writing program. |
 | | If she had the time, she could visit the original 1923-built New Orleans streetcar (destination, "Desire") that once went by Tennessee Williams' apartment and is now enshrined at the Pennsylvania Trolley Museum in Washington, Pa. But maybe impresario Frisch has moved it up to the Chosky for the day. |
