SUMMARY:Theatre Incognita presents THE GLASS MENAGERIE by Tennessee Williams
DESCRIPTION:A single mother raising two children in the Depression dreams of a Southern gentility long vanished. A sensitive daughter wraps herself up in a world of glass and old records.

Jonah Hirst plays her son\, Tom; Kylie Schultz plays the daughter\, Laura; and AJ Sage plays Jim O’Connor\, their ’gentleman caller.’ \nEvening performances are at 7 pm\, Friday & Saturday May 3–4\, and Thursday through Saturday May 9-11. Matinee will be offered at 2pm on Sunday May 5 and May 12 (Mother’s Day). Tickets available at incognita.ludus.com
