The Glass Menagerie

A play by Tennessee Williams
Directed by Clinton Nitschke

So what are we going to do now, honey, the rest of our lives? Just sit down in this house and watch the parades go by? Amuse ourselves with the glass menagerie, darling? Eternally play those worn-out records your father left us as a painful reminder of him?'

A drama of great tenderness, charm and beauty, The Glass Menagerie is one of the most famous plays of the modern theatre.

Amanda Wingfield is a faded, tragic remnant of Southern gentility who lives in poverty in a dingy St. Louis apartment with her son, Tom, and her daughter, Laura. Amanda strives to give meaning and direction to her life and the lives of her children, though her methods are ineffective and irritating. Tom is driven nearly to distraction by his mother's nagging and seeks escape in alcohol and the world of the movies. Laura also lives in her illusions. She is crippled, and this defect, intensified by her mother's anxiety to see her married, has driven her more and more into herself.

When a gentleman caller arrives for dinner, the Wingfield family is flooded with hope. However, it is uncertain if this visitor will change things for the better.

Starring: Jessica Merrick, Connor Duncan, Mia Livingston-Pearce, Liam Warmeant.
