BWW Review: A Misconceived MENAGERIE at Maryland Ensemble Theatre
by Jack L. B. Gohn - Feb 18, 2013


In every other interpretation of Tom Wingfield that I have ever seen, Tom is always played to show tenderness and solicitude at times for his mother and sister, and a fundamental understanding of their plight, even as he chafes at their dysfunction and lashes out at them. When, at the end, he says he is haunted by his sister even in his flight, this is not just about being unable to spit a bad taste out of his mouth. Yet Matt Lee's Tom gives just that impression.

Newnan Community Theatre Opens 2011 with THE GLASS MENAGERIE, 2/17-27
by BWW News Desk - Feb 17, 2011


On February 17th, the Newnan Community Theatre Company celebrates the 100th anniversary of Tennessee Williams' birth by presenting Williams' classic memory play The Glass Menagerie. This haunting family drama takes place at a particular time in American history, in 1938 right before World War II, just as the country was coming out of the Great Depression. While the setting controls their circumstances, the traits, conflicts and relationships of the characters are beyond time and place. They are people we will all recognize, and perhaps come away with a deeper understanding of the family members who have made us what we are - for better or worse.
