'''Oh, Streetcar!''' is a musical version of Tennessee Williams' play ''A Streetcar Named Desire''. Several cast members of the town of [[Springfield]] put it on in the episode [[A Streetcar Named Marge]].  The songs for the show were composed by [[Alf Clausen]] and written by [[Jeff Martin]].  The song "New Orleans" gained a lot of controversy because of its lyrics portraying the city in a bad light.  In response, in [[Homer the Heretic|the following episode]], [[Bart]] wrote on the [[chalkboard gags|chalkboard]], "I will not defame New Orleans" as an apology.
