(Although 1945 marked the play‘s debut on Broadway, the first offâ€" Broadway production was actually in 1944, he says.) excited because his troupe‘s presentaâ€" tion not only marks the 50th mainâ€" stage production for Burlâ€"Oak but coincides with the 50th anniversary of the first production of The Glass Menacerie.

Curtis Walker says the play has been intensely personal for her, so much so that at the end of a rehearsal, she feels "emotionally ruined." "I think what‘s going to be fasciâ€" nating for the audience is that they‘ll see that Amanda is everyone‘s mothâ€" er," says Curtis Walker. "They‘ll see themselves. They‘ll see their mothers. They‘ll see themselves as daughters in Laura." Jacqueline Curtis Walker, who porâ€" trays Amanda Wingfield, says her role â€" one she "desperately" wanted â€" is the most challenging she has ever porâ€" trayed in her 22 years of theatre. Trying to bring out the humor without destroying the tenderness of the piece and the poignancy of the writing is one of his objectives, the other, trying to balance the acting which is real, with the unreal surâ€" rounding, he says. "The challenge is you want it to be moving and funny. Most people don‘t realize how much humor there is," says Haxell. member, Haxell has found that due to Williams‘ literary mastery, "each actor can make their character their own."
