After two decades, Tennessee Williams’s The Glass Menagerie makes its highly anticipated return to Melbourne Theatre Company.

Celebrated stage and screen actor Alison Whyte takes on one of the most iconic roles in theatre: Amanda Wingfield, the heartbreakingly hopeful mother. She is joined by Millie Donaldson, Tim Draxl and Harry McGee in this poetic portrait of a languishing family.
