Peter Shaffer has written of Tennesssee Williams: "He was a born dramatist as few are ever born. Whatever he put on paper, superb of superfluous, glorious or gaudy, could not fail to be electrifyingly actable. He could not write a dull scene... Tennessee Williamss will live as long as drama itself."
Abandoned by her husband, Amanda Wingfield comforts herself with recollections of her earlier, more gracious life in Blue Mountain when she was pursued by 'gentlemen callers'. Her son Tom, a poet with a job in a warehouse, longs for adventure and escape from his mother's suffocating embrace, while Laura, her shy crippled daughter, has her glass menagerie and her memories. Amanda is desperate to find her daughter a husband, but when the long-awaited gentleman caller does arrive, Laura's romantic illusions are crushed. 'The Glass Menagerie', Tennessee William's evocation of loneliness and the lost love, is one of his most powerful and moving plays
