Freeport Factory Stage’s production of Tennessee Williams’ drama, “The Glass Menagerie,” plays through Feb. 25.
A release from the theater company describes the production as follows:
“The Glass Menagerie” is a play about family bonds — what ties us to the past, what haunts us and what happens to dreamers when they finally awaken.
Tom Wingfield works for a 1940s-era shoe manufacturing company, but he dreams of a future that provides him with adventure, travel and freedom.
Hoping to free himself from being trapped within the four walls of a cold water tenement in St. Louis, at the continual nagging of his mother, Amanda, Tom agrees to invite a gentleman caller to meet his sister, Laura.
“The Glass Menagerie” cast includes J.P. Guimont and Elizabeth Somerville.
Performances are scheduled for Thursday, Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 p.m., and Sunday at 2 p.m.
All Thursday performances are “pay what you want.” Tickets for all other performances are $19 general admission and $15 for students and seniors 65 and older.
Tickets are available online at www.freeportfactory.com or by calling the box office at 865-5505.
