Plot summary

The setting is a city block during a sweltering summer, where the residents serve as representatives of the not-very-idealized American melting pot. There is idle chitchat, gossip, jealousy, racism, adultery, and suddenly but not unexpectedly, a murder.

Wow! Despite its limitations for modern sensibilities (ethnic stereotypes, staginess, broad [and corny] humor), Street Scene packs a wallop.

See it and be amazed!
