The Glass Menagerie
Event description
Brought lovingly back to life by an award-winning team, this boutique reimagining of the timeless classic ‘The Glass Menagerie’ passionately explores the subtexts of sexuality and gender through a coalescence of Tennessee Williams’ perceptive intentions and experiences, combined 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)
Directed by Nicholas Reynolds and Nadia Sirninger-Rankin
Produced by Running with Scissors Theatre and Victory People Productions
