Mary-Arrchie Theatre Extends THE GLASS MENAGERIE Through 8/25

By: Jul. 18, 2013

Due to popular demand, Mary-Arrchie Theatre Co's critically acclaimed production of Tennessee Williams' classic THE GLASS MENAGERIE will add four final weeks of performances, extending through August 25, 2013 at Theater Wit, 1229 W. Belmont Ave. Tickets for all performances are available at www.theaterwit.org or by calling (773) 975-8150.

THE GLASS MENAGERIE transferred to Theater Wit in May following its critically acclaimed, sold-out run at Angel Island last winter. Directed by ensemble member Hans Fleischmann, who also stars as Tom, THE GLASS MENAGERIE features the full original cast, including Walter Briggs (Jeff Award winner, Best Supporting Actor), Maggie Cain and Joanne Dubach (Jeff Award nomination, Best Supporting Actress).

Beautiful and heart-wrenching, THE GLASS MENAGERIE focuses on a man obsessed with regrets from his past. Living on the streets, he navigates an audience through the gritty back-alleys of his imagination. Truth and delusion collide in director Hans Fleishmann's re-imagining of Tennessee Williams' classic memory play.

Highlighted by a Jeff Award-nominated original score by Daniel Knox, the production team for THE GLASS MENAGERIE also includes: Grant Sabin (scenic design), Stefin Sterberl (costume design), Matthew Gawryk (lighting design), Joe Court (sound design), Anna Henson (projection design), Arianna Soloway (props design), Rudy Galvan (assistant director/dramaturg), Andrew Donnelly (stage manager) and Carlo Garcia (producing director).

Performances are Wednesdays, Thursday and Fridays at 8 pm; Saturdays at 3 pm & 8 pm; Sundays at 3 pm. There will be no performances on Saturday, July 20. The performance on Sunday, August 18 will be at 7 pm. Tickets are $37. $32 students/seniors. Discounts available for groups of 10 or more. Tickets for all performances are available at www.theaterwit.org or by calling (773) 975-8150.
