For Whom the Southern Belle Tolls

by Christopher Durang

Directed by student, Erika Baker

Christopher Durang’s celebrated parody of Tennessee Williams’ classic The Glass Menagerie is one of Durang’s most popular one-acts, a crackpot comedy of parent-child tensions.  Weary mother Amanda tries to pry her fragile son, Lawrence, away from his glass cocktail stirrer collection long enough to entice Ginny, his “feminine caller.” Meanwhile, brother Tom just wants an entertaining night at the movies with “friends.”
