**Play Description:**
"The Glass Menagerie," written by Tennessee Williams and rated PG, is a tender and tragic memory play set in 1930s St. Louis. The story revolves around Amanda Wingfield, a faded Southern belle living in poverty with her two grown children. Her son, Tom, has been the reluctant breadwinner since their father abandoned them, while her daughter, Laura, is crippled by shyness and a limp, retreating into her collection of glass animals and music. The arrival of a gentleman caller disrupts their fragile world, shattering their illusions. This ethereal classic is a cornerstone of American theatre.
