Considered along with A Streetcar Named Desire and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof as one of Tennessee Williams' masterpieces, THE GLASS MENAGERIE premiered on Broadway in 1945 and was the playwright's first great success. Set in St. Louis in the 1930's, the memory play tells the story of the Wingfield family - Tom, who is torn between his obligation to his family and his desire to break away, his overbearing mother Amanda, and his frail sister Laura, whose memory he cannot escape.
THE GLASS MENAGERIE is performed Tuesday evenings at 7 PM, Wednesday through Saturday evenings at 8pm, with matinees on Wednesday and Saturday at 2pm and Sunday at 3pm. Please note that there will be an added performance on Monday, March 21 at 8pm in place of the Thursday, March 24 performance.
Tickets to THE GLASS MENAGERIE, priced from $91.25 to $71.25, are available at telecharge.com (212-239-6200) and at the Ethel Barrymore Theatre box office.
