Held in the Little Theatre.
In “The Glass Menagerie,” illusions make life bearable for a family abandoned by “a telephone man who fell in love with long distances.” The mother cheers herself up with memories of her youth as a sought-after Southern belle; the daughter loses herself in an imaginary world of glass animals; and the son, who finds solace in the deadening effects of drink and the fantasy served up in the movies, is torn between love for his family and the need to escape before he, too, is lost. “The Glass Menagerie” was written by brilliant, prolific, but troubled author and playwright Tennessee Williams.
