"Blanche Survives Katrina in a FEMA Trailer Named Desire imagines that Tennessee Williams's tragic heroine, Blanche DuBois, has neither aged nor left New Orleans. She was there when Katrina hit; she was sent to the Superdome; she was evacuated to Shreveport and entangled in the heartless bureaucracy of FEMA. She gets involved with drugs, is adopted by an Arizona megachurch, and is 'job-placed' at a Popeye's cash register – having for good reason been permanently barred from teaching young schoolboys. Hers is a refugee story whose politics and pathos you have read but one you've never experienced through the eyes of the desperately deliberately fragile, alcoholic, codependent, sex-addicted Blanche DuBois – America's most broken woman.nnIn a camp way, this piece is an exploration of the search for a personal place of safety in America today – physical safety, spiritual safety, sexual safety. When we live under a government that lets its weakest citizens drown and starve and then go homeless, can the fragile parts inside any of us be safe? BSKIAFTND is as political as it is politically incorrect. And it is very politically incorrect."
