RUBY Productions is set to bring Tennessee Williams’ timeless play The Glass Menagerie to life at The Ruby Theatre in Penrith this October.

Directed by Ann Attwood and Anthony Brown, the production will run on October 4, 10, 11 and 17 at 7pm, with matinee performances on October 11 and 18 at 2pm.

The celebrated drama is introduced by Tom, both narrator and protagonist, who recounts his memories of life with his mother Amanda and sister Laura. Set in 1940s St. Louis, the story centres on Amanda, a faded Southern belle clinging to the glamour of her youth while anxiously plotting a secure future for her daughter. Laura, who lives with a limp caused by polio, struggles with shyness and fragility, while Tom finds himself torn between family duty and the desire to escape.

As one of Williams’ most iconic “memory plays,” The Glass Menagerie continues to resonate with audiences for its poignant themes of love, longing, and the fragile balance between reality and illusion.

Performances will be held at The Ruby Theatre, Level 1, 15 Evan Street, Penrith. Tickets are priced at $30 for adults and $25 concession and can be booked via www.trybooking.com/DEEWQ or reserved by emailing rubyproductions99@gmail.com.

Please note the venue does not have wheelchair access.
