Our reading of The Glass Menagerie explores the disintegration of the mind of Tom Wingfield, who returns again and again, as if in a nightmarish trauma, to the last days of his life with his mother Amanda and sister Laura. Trying to deal with the painful fragments of his memories, he plunges into the past as a rebel who desperately tries to restore the fragments of meaning in his mind so that he can rehabilitate his guilt.
The plot revolves around the preparation and visit to the home of the Wingfields by Jim - a young man on whom all hopes for a bright future of the family are aggressively projected. He turns by 180 degrees the barely supported established order of the family and brings out of them unsuspected excesses.
The chamber production will employ a team of musicians who will perform live music and also act as a mediator for Tom between the delusions of his cloistered existence and the outside world.
The stage image is built around fragmentary boxes forming a home, but in this home everything is frozen and reminiscent of dead space.
In these fragments of life, Tom tries to restore the past, to change a single detail that would reverse the course of time.
