BroadwayWorld has a first look at Barrington Stage Company's The Glass Menagerie, which is currently on stage through October 21 on the Boyd-Quinson Mainstage (30 Union Street). Check out photos of the cast in action below!

Directed by Julianne Boyd (West Side Story), The Glass Menagerie stars Caitlin O'Connell (Broadway: The Heiress) as "Amanda," BSC Associate Artist Mark H. Dold (Breaking the Code, This) as "Tom," Angela Janas (The Acting Company) as "Laura," and Tyler Lansing Weaks (LCT: Macbeth) as "Jim."

Tennessee Williams' autobiographical memory play centers on frustrated writer Tom, his mother Amanda, who is fighting for her children's future while lost in memories of her Southern belle past, and his painfully shy sister Laura. Reality and illusion collide when a rare visit from a gentleman caller upsets the balance of the Wingfield family in one of the greatest American plays of the 20th century.

The Glass Menagerie has scenic design by Brian Prather, costume design by Elivia Bovenzi, lighting design by Matthew Richards, sound design by Joel Abbott. Original music by Alexander Sovronsky, played by Susan French on the viola. Casting by Pat McCorkle. Production Stage Manager: Patrick Egan.

The Glass Menagerie opened at the Playhouse Theatre March 31, 1945 and was awarded Best Play in 1945 by the New York Drama Critics' Circle, marking Williams' first Broadway success.

Two-time winner of the Pulitzer Prize (A Streetcar Named Desire, 1948 and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof, 1955), Tennessee Williams (1911 - 1983) is considered one of the greatest American Playwrights. In addition to his two Pulitzers, Williams was nominated four times for the Tony Award for Best Play, winning in 1951 for The Rose Tattoo. His other major plays include Summer and Smoke, Camino Real, Sweet Bird of Youth, Suddenly Last Summer and The Night of the Iguana.

Performances of The Glass Menagerie are as follows: Wednesday and Thursday at 7:00pm, Friday and Saturday at 8:00pm, Saturday at 2:00pm and Sunday at 3:00pm. Opening night October 7 at 3:00pm. Boyd-Quinson Mainstage (30 Union Street). Tickets: $15 - $49. Barrington Stage Box Office: (413) 236-8888 or online at www.barringtonstageco.org.
