A Timeless Exploration of Memory, Love, and Loss
Las Vegas Little Theatre (LVLT) announces its upcoming production of Tennessee Williams’ iconic play, “The Glass Menagerie,” running from April 18 to May 4 on the mainstage. This poignant and moving play, set in a cramped St. Louis apartment during the 1930s, explores the themes of memory, love, and the enduring power of the human spirit.
Audiences are invited into the world of the Wingfield family: the ambitious mother, Amanda (Gillen Brey), her shy and withdrawn daughter, Laura (Waverly Jade), and her son, Tom (Michael Blair), who struggles with his own dreams and responsibilities. The play, narrated by Tom, is a bittersweet reflection on the past, the present, and the hopes and disappointments of family life. As the gentleman caller, Jacob Moore rounds out this local Las Vegas talent cast.
“The Glass Menagerie” is directed by Walter Niejadlik and performed on a set designed by Ron Lindblom and dressed by Michael Blair, with lights designed by Ginny Adams, and costumes designed by Julie Horton. Jim Braun, stage manager, completes this creative team.
“The Glass Menagerie” at Las Vegas Little Theatre, located at 3920 Schiff Drive, with performances on Fridays and Saturdays at 7 p.m. and Sundays at 2 p.m. There will be a Saturday matinee on April 26 and May 3 at 2 p.m. Tickets are $35 and can be purchased at www.lvlt.org or by calling the box office during box office hours, Mondays 4 to 8 p.m., Wednesday and Friday 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., and Saturdays 9 a.m. to noon, at (702) 362-7996.
