sinuous shapes. The ‘Varsoviana is filtered into weird distortion, accompanied by the
cries and noise of the jungle. Blanche seize the back of a chair as if to defend herself.]

dress. Her voice is deep like an ocean floor and toneless as a fire-ball.]

MATRON: Hello, Blanche

[The greeting is echoed and re-echoed by other mysterious voices behind the walls, as if
reverberated through a canyon of rock.]

STANLEY: She says that she forget something.


[The echo sounds in threatening whispers.]
MATRON: That’s fine, but we have other places to go after here.
[The MATRON rush in and grab BLANCHE wrist.]
STANLEY: What did you forget, Blanche?
BLANCHE: I - I -
MATRON: It don’t matter what you forget. We can pick it up later but you need to leave this
place with us.

Curtain

Reflection

In this rewritten assignment, I have chosen scene 11 from the book named A Streetcar

Named Desire to be rewritten. Scene 11 is the last scene of this book where the scene is about

Blanche Dubois is taken into a mental asylum because of Stanley and Stella decision. The

decision was forced upon Stella since she need to choose whether to stay with her sister or her

husband who she have a child with. It is very emotional scene which Tennessee Williams has

illustrate very well. However, The Matron and Doctor in the scene were not realistic enough. The

Doctor were so kind and gentle while the Matron didn’t violent as to be expected. I decided to

make the doctor and Matron to become more realistic by changing there dialogue and action to

become more violent just like what mental asylum has done to the patient during the 20 century.

The doctor in my rewritten isn’t patient like in the story and the Matron also act very

aggressive to Blanche. Although, The story have the same ending. Blanche being abused by the

doctor and Matron is a very troubling for Stella and Mitch to watch. Both of them have a deep

connection with Blanche and seeing her abuse make them hate stanley and cried more than story.

I try to illustrate this by focusing and giving more detail in Blanche and Martron fight. Also, I

decided to make it more heart breaking by letting the doctor make Blanche wear the straight

jacket. To see Blanche wear a straight jacket and being forced out of the house is a very

emotional scene that impact everyone in the play. Stanley in my rewrite still act calmly like the

original but because I change the doctor and Matron action, Everyone else have change there

response. The men has decided to quit the poker in the last line of rewrite because they are shock

of what happened to Blanche. Mitch also very depressed by Blanche departure and Stella cannot

take Stanley anymore and left him. Stanley scream toward Stella just like the poker night in

scene 3 just this time there is no response from Stella showing the contrast of scene 11 and 3.

I have tried to illustrate the human nature of losing someone you love. Seeing the one you

care get hurt can change your personality and response. I make Blanche getting abuse by Doctor

and Matron to make the reaction of everybody in the play be more powerful. The more Blanche

have been hurt the more who care her is hurt too.
