Writing Assignment #2

Most of the characters in “A Streetcar Named Desire” face overwhelming internal and external conflict. Choose ONE of the following characters from the play (Stanley, Blanche, Stella, Mitch) and write a 1-2-page letter from that character to a fictional newspaper advice columnist (think “Dear Abby”) asking for help (in the form of advice) with their issues. Be sure to stay true to your character’s voice. Describe the problems your character faces in clear terms and ask specific, answerable questions. DO NOT RETELL THE PLOT.
