The Glass Menagerie by Tennessee Williams
Tinderbox
One of the greatest American plays ever written, Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie is reimagined by award-winning theatre company Tinderbox in a haunting, fragmented world of memory and cinema, directed by Patrick J O’Reilly.
In a cramped apartment, a family is coming apart. Tom longs to escape. Laura disappears into her glass animals. Amanda fights to hold the family together, clinging to a past she cannot let go.
Nearly 80 years on, The Glass Menagerie remains as urgent as ever.
This production marks the first professional staging in Northern Ireland in 20 years.
Think: American Beauty meets Tennessee Williams — a haunting story of family, memory and love.
Nine performances only. See it while you can.
Presented by special arrangement with The University of the South, Sewanee, Tennessee and International Literary Properties.
