| Description |
Lyrical and evocative, Tennessee Williams's classic 'memory play' tells of the Wingfield family, living hand to mouth in a small apartment in St Louis. While the restless and aspiring writer Tom and his introverted sister Laura escape into fantasy, their mother Amanda hankers after a lost gentility and places all her hopes for the family's future in Tom. But Tom has dreams beyond the stultifying family circle... |
