The Glass Menagerie

Ghosts of the past continue to haunt in Williams' seminal play The Glass Menagerie. Amanda Wingfield is a faded remnant of Southern gentility who now lives in a cramped St. Louis apartment with her aimless son, Tom, and her debilitatingly shy daughter, Laura. With their father absent and the Great Depression in motion, the siblings find comfort in their distractions — alcohol, movies, and writing for Tom and a collection of glass animals for Laura.

When a gentleman caller arrives for dinner, the Wingfield family is flooded with hope. But it's uncertain if this mysterious visitor will change things for the better or shatter a family's fragile illusions.

Running Time: 2 hours and 30 minutes, including one intermission. Audience: 18+
