The Glass Menagerie - by Tennessee Williams

 One of Mr. Williams' most iconic and deeply personal plays, often seen as an autobiographical reflection of his own life, and particularly his family dynamics. Tom Wingfield returns to St. Louis in his memory to try to resolve the guilt he feels for the choices he made concerning his sister Laura and his mother Amanda that still haunt him. The play explores themes of illusion versus reality, escapism, and the destructive nature of familial expectations, as the characters struggle to reconcile their past with the present.
