The Glass Menagerie
Events Geelong, Greater Geelong, Victoria
11 Jun 2026 to 13 Jun 2026 Once Only Event
Direct from a 2026 Melbourne season by Tennessee Williams and directed by Mark Wilson.
For the first time in two decades, Melbourne Theatre Company presents the Tennessee Williams classic that changed the course of modern theatre.
Celebrated stage and screen actor Alison Whyte (Death of a Salesman) makes a much-anticipated return to the Company to take on one of the greatest roles in the theatrical canon: Amanda Wingfield, the heartbreakingly hopeful mother who clings to the past while trying to control the future. As she sets out to secure stability for her daughter Laura, her son Tom (Tim Draxl) – yearning for freedom – teeters between obligation and escape. When a much-longed-for gentleman called steps into their world, he may be the fulfilment of Amanda’s dreams, or the blow that shatters her carefully constructed illusion.
Winner of the New York Drama Critics’ Circle Award for Best Play in 1945 and recipient of the first-ever Tony Award for Best Play revival, The Glass Menagerie is a haunting, poetic portrait of a languishing family and the fragile illusions we cling to in order to survive.
Directed by Melbourne Theatre Company’s Mark Wilson (Jacky, Much Ado About Nothing), this sharp and poignant new production of a timeless masterpiece comes direct to Geelong from the Company’s landmark 2026 season and is an experience you cannot miss.
