The Glass Menagerie (PRIVATE EVENT - STUDENT) (13:00) |
|
Of The Glass Menagerie, Harris Yulin, the award-winning stage director says: "Few plays in modern theatre have captured the imagination and heart of the American public as this American masterpiece. It is the story of failed expectations, false hope and heartrending desolation. "The Glass Menagerie is accounted by many to be an autobiographical play about Williams's life, the characters and story mimicking his own more closely than any of his other works. Williams (whose real name is Thomas) would be Tom, his Mother, Amanda, and his sickly and (supposedly) mentally ill sister Rose would be Laura (whose nickname in the play is "Blue Roses", a result of an unfortunate bout of pleurosis as a high school student). It has been suggested as well that the character of Laura is based upon Williams himself, referencing his introvert nature and obsessive focus on one part of life (writing for Williams and glass animals in Laura's case. Set in 1930s America, the play is a four-character memory play, and as such it is not realistic, as our memories select only what they want to remember. It was originally written as a screenplay for MGM in 1941. The play actually staged in Chicago in 1944 and in 1945 went on to win the prestigious New York Drama Critics Circle Award; it was Williams' first successful play.
This PIER 21 Productions presentation features Lisa Giannini (who personified magnificently Serafina Delle Rose in a PIER 21 production of Williams’ The Rose Tattoo), Vincent Benvenuto, Milva Franzini and Leo Primerano.
