Event Info
The Glass Menagerie
By Tennessee Williams
Directed by Kate Cherry
Set & Costume Design by Adam Gardnir
Lighting Design by Jon Buswell
Featuring Gillian Jones, James Mackay, Melanie Munt and Steve Turner
The Glass Menagerie is a timeless, contemporary American classic. Williams’ beautifully crafted, semi-autobiographical play portrays the transformation of Tom Wingfield from a St. Louis warehouse worker during the depression who can only dream of adventure, to a merchant seaman who wanders the world. Tom’s freedom comes at a cost: he must escape his overbearing mother and his adoring, childlike sister, Laura, who is only free to express herself with the animals in her glass menagerie. When Tom’s attempt to provide Laura with a gentleman caller ends in disaster, he is forced to abandon his sister in order to save himself.
Anyone who has ever loved their family, but needed to go on their own journey of discovery, will laugh and perhaps cry at this tender portrayal of an artist’s life in a glass menagerie. Steve Turner, a favourite of Western Australian audiences, will portray Tom and Gillian Jones, one of Australia’s most exciting leading ladies, will return to WA to play Amanda Wingfield. Written by a great American playwright at the height of his powers and brought to life by a formidable company of actors, The Glass Menagerie offers a moving night at the theatre.
New York Drama Critic Circle Award, 1945
“… in masterly fashion, Williams plays upon the romantic possibilities of fairy story …” The Age
The Glass Menagerie is presented through special arrangement with The University of the South, Sewanee, Tennessee.
