The Glass Menagerie
Don't miss a gripping new staging of Tennessee Williams' iconic masterpiece, The Glass Menagerie, at the Citizens Theatre in October!
About The Glass Menagerie
Tom, trapped in a soul-crushing job and burdened with the weight of supporting his overbearing mother, Amanda, and painfully shy sister, Laura, longs for escape. When he invites Jim, a charming but well-meaning acquaintance, to dinner, Amanda seizes the moment to secure Laura’s future happiness.
As hopes rise, family tensions mount, and cracks in their relationships deepen, threatening to shatter their fragile world apart for good.
