The Glass Menagerie

THE GLASS MENAGERIE is Tennessee Williams' poetic masterpiece, anchored by the aging southern belle Amanda Wingfield, who hopes for her son Tom to fulfill her dreams of finding the perfect "gentleman caller" for her shy and damaged daughter Laura. A drama of great tenderness, charm and beauty, THE GLASS MENAGERIE is one of the most famous plays of the modern theatre.

Bartlett Theater is proud to introduce itself with a compelling production of The Glass Menagerie. Staged by Founding Artistic Director Jonathan Bohun Brady, Tennessee Williams' masterpiece stars Shannon Malone as legendary Southern belle Amanda Wingfield alongside Maigan Kennedy (Laura), Adam Poole (Tom), and Chris Wright (the Gentleman Caller).

Bartlett Theater dedicates itself to exploring and presenting the creative world of one playwright each season. As the only theater in the Southeast, and one of just a handful nationwide, with such an immersive focus, Bartlett Theater will produce bold works that challenge and empower its audience by finding the powerful connections between the words and stories of modern playwrights and the contemporary playwrights they inspired. With the goal of becoming a regional theater presence, Bartlett Theater intends to firmly plant itself in downtown Durham, further enriching a vibrant local culture.
