In scene six, Blanche talks about her views on love using light imagery and diction, but the lighting in this scene is dark and at night. This causes a disparity between what Blanche is saying and the connotation the surroundings are giving off. The viewer may then question what Blanche is saying, and begin to analyze whether what she is saying is true or not. While Blanche talks using light imagery, she prefers the dark because she likes to hide in the dark. Blanche is much about deception and hiding, so she prefers the dark which doesn't show much about her like her age. In the beginning of the play, Blanche covers up the light in her room with the paper lantern, showing once again her aversion to light.
