The Glass Menagerie at Rep Stage

Amanda Wingfield is a faded remnant of Southern gentility who now lives in a cramped St. Louis apartment with her seemingly aimless son, Tom, and her debilitatingly shy daughter, Laura. With their father absent and the Great Depression in motion, the siblings find comfort in their distractions alcohol, movies, and writing for Tom and a collection of glass animals for Laura. When a gentleman caller arrives for dinner, the Wingfield family is flooded with hope. But its uncertain if this mysterious visitor will change things for the better or shatter a familys fragile illusions. This production asks what memories truly look like, and how that answer differs for each of us.Tickets for The Glass Menagerie are $40 for general admission, $35 for seniors and military, and $15 for students with a current ID.
