The starry cast of the rapturously received Broadway revival of the Tennessee Williams classic THE GLASS MENAGERIE, directed by John Tiffany, discuss their favorite lines from the hallowed drama in a featurette released in promotion of the currently running production.

"Oh, I can't possibly answer that question!" Zachary Quinto initially asserts.

"It's impossible to say what my favorite line is - there are about a million of them!" Cherry Jones adds.

Celia Keenan-Bolger, Brian J. Smith and director John Tiffany also open up about their favorite Tennessee Williams exchanges in the revealing new promo piece.

The official description of the new revival of THE GLASS MENAGERIE is as follows: "Amanda Wingfield (two-time Tony Award winner Cherry Jones) is a Southern belle past her prime, living with two grown children in a small apartment in St. Louis. Amanda dreams of a better life for her shy and crippled daughter Laura (two-time Tony Award nominee Celia Keenan-Bolger), and so she pushes her son, Tom (Zachary Quinto, Angels in America), to find a "gentleman caller" for the girl. However, the arrival of the gentleman caller (Brian J. Smith, The Columnist) sends shockwaves through the family and causes cracks to form in the delicate fantasies that have kept them going. A beautiful play full of poetry & longing, THE GLASS MENAGERIE makes a triumphant return to Broadway in an exquisite & groundbreaking new production."

The revival of the melancholy memory play is currently running at the Booth Theatre on Broadway. More information is available at the official site here.
