Die Glasmenagerie is coming to Theater Basel this month. Performances run 30 January - 18 May 2025. Tennessee Williams' classic about the disillusionment of a family was first performed in German in Basel in 1946; the new Basel version is staged by English director Jaz Woodcock-Stewart.
For a brief evening, it looks as if Laura's life could unfold in all its possibilities. She lives with her mother Amanda Wingfield and her brother Tom in a small flat in St. Louis. Tom's boyfriend Jim comes to dinner and seems to Laura like a prince charming who will fulfil all her longings. But Jim is already engaged and breaks Laura's beloved unicorn, the symbol of her fantasy world, as a parting gift.
