Performances June 16th to July 1st
In June and July Warrandyte Theatre Company will stage this classic American play portraying a timeless story about family.
WMIAA members and others are invited to audition for the four parts.
Tom Wingfield: Tom is the storyteller, and his memories are those that are portrayed in the play. Tom works at a shoe warehouse to support his family but is frustrated by his job and aspires to be a poet. He struggles to write, all the while being sleep-deprived and irritable.
Laura Wingfield: A shy, fragile young lady with an inferiority complex, that isolates her from the outside world. She has created a world of her own, symbolized by her collection of glass figurines.
Amanda Wingfield: A faded Southern belle abandoned by her husband, while trying to raise her two children under harsh financial conditions. Amanda is a vigorous, energetic woman who has kept her family together through the dint of her energies.
Jim O’Connor: Jim was a popular athlete and actor during his days at High School, but subsequent years have been less kind to him.
