The Glass Menagerie is Tennessee Williams's poetic masterpiece, anchored by the ageing southern belle Amanda Wingfield, who hopes for her son Tom to fulfill her dreams of finding the perfect "gentleman caller" for her shy and damaged daughter Laura. This production marks the A.R.T.'s first foray into the world of TennesseeWilliams.

Multiple Tony and Emmy Award winner Cherry Jones returns to the A.R.T. to play Amanda Wingfield, and is joined by Zachary Quinto as Tom, Celia Keenan-Bolger as Laura, and Brian J. Smith as the Gentleman Caller. The Tony Award-winning design team includes set and costumes by Bob Crowley, lighting by Natasha Katz, and sound by Clive Goodwin. Original music is composed by Nico Muhly, and movement by longtime Tiffany collaborator Steven Hoggett.

ASL Interpreted performance: Tuesday, February 26 @ 7:30pm and Sunday, March 3 @ 2:00pm. Audio Described performance: Wednesday, February 27 @ 7:30pm and Saturday, March 2 @ 2:00pm.

The ASL Team includes Michael Krajnak (coach), Rachel Judelson, Kelly Muskopf, and Michael Sullivan (interpreters). The AD Team includes Janet Stankus (primary describer) and Vince Lombardi (secondary describer).
