The Glass Menagerie
An American Masterpiece
by Tennessee Williams
directed by Preston Lane
September 5 – 26, 2010
Handle with care.
Memories as fragile as glass are tossed into the air in Tennessee Williams’ first great masterpiece. Dreams meet reality and love becomes desperate in a shimmering drama of a family on the edge. Tom struggles in a modern day world while his mother holds tight to a fantasy of Southern gentility and his sister hides amongst the glistening crystalline creatures she collects. With an edge as sharp as broken glass, the play cuts deep into the longing of human hearts.
"The trip and the ticket in this case are fully justified by what must be called a singularly remarkable new vision of one of the classics in the American theater...The result is the strongest and most memorable theater—and film—experience I've ever had in the same room at the same time. This Glass Menagerie is not to be missed."
