The Glass Menagerie will see Pamela Rabe (Wentworth)take the stage as Williams’ faded Southern belle.
The story follows Amanda Wingfield as she shares a rundown with her two adult children – the frustrated Tom and the cripplingly shy and tender Laura. All three need a chance to break free in their own way, and the arrival of a charismatic ‘gentleman caller’ offers exactly that.
Winner of the 2015 Helpmann Award for Best Play, Eamon Flack’s new production subverts Williams’ own description of The Glass Menagerie as a ‘memory play’.
