The Glass Menagerie
Drama
An aging Southern Belle complicates life for her ambitious son and crippled daughter because of her own warped views of what life should be.
VIBE
A tender, yet suffocating portrait of a family trapped by their past. It feels like a faded photograph, beautiful but tinged with the sadness of what can never be. A quiet ache lingers long after the credits roll.
