The Glass Menagerie

Directed by Bryan Hagelin, this drama by Tennessee Williams is an American classic of tenderness, charm, and beauty. The Wingfield family lives in a dingy St. Louis apartment, housing Amanda, a faded southern belle who clings to every moment of control she gets over her children and longs for the glory days of her youth, Tom, a closeted writer who dreams of a life of freedom far away from the factory job he has to support his family, and Laura a debilitatingly shy girl with a physical handicap and an obsession with her glass animal figurines. At Amanda’s insistence, Tom brings home a gentleman caller from the warehouse to meet Laura which leads to the illusions all four of them have built up for their own survival to begin to collapse around them like a piece of glass.

Starring: Gian Verderose, Cheryl Stark, Angela Robb, and Andrew Fralinger.

Beloved by Americans for almost 100 years, “The Glass Menagerie” is an icon of American theatre.
