BWW Review: THE GLASS MENAGERIE, Arcola Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - May 30, 2019

Amanda Wingfield's (Lesley Ewen) hopes that her two children will lead a more stable life than hers grapple with their own sense of individuality. While their mother lives in a past made of suitors and debutantes worrying about the future of her unmarried daughter Laura (Naima Swaleh) - a shy and scarred young woman who spends her days polishing her glass trinkets - Tom (Michael Abubakar) desperately wants to break free from his dead-end job at a shoe warehouse.
