Acknowledged as one of the great classic plays of our time,
this work catapulted Tennessee Williams to international success.
Set in the harsh world of tenement apartment living in St Louis,
Missouri during the Great Depression, the story is steeped in the
hopes and pain of the Wingfield family.
Matriarch Amanda Wingfield struggles with the reality of her
life, joyfully re-imagining her youth as a Southern belle, while
nurturing her emotionally fragile and painfully shy daughter,
Laura. Her son, Tom, yearns to escape the confines of his home
but remains trapped by his devotion to his sister. Williams’ semiautobiographical play examines the dreams and disappointments
that ebb and flow in this bittersweet, sensitive portrayal of a family
at odds with itself and reality
