The Glass Menagerie passionately explores the subtexts of sexuality and gender through a coalescence of Tennessee Williams’ perceptive intentions and experiences with a nuanced, contemporary understanding.

Narrated by Tom Wingfield, the story unfolds as he recalls life with his mother, Amanda, and sister, Laura, in their cramped tenement apartment during the midst of the great depression. The play explores family tensions and the struggle between illusion and reality in a world that feels increasingly confining. 

 

Starring Oliver Gorringe (Tom Wingfield), Linda Cookson (Amanda Wingfield), Caitlin McCallig (Laura Wingfield) and Columbus Lane (Jim O’Connor)
