Catching Up! The Glass Menagerie

A belated birthday gift was a trip to the Ford's Theater here in DC to see the first of three plays commemorating the 100th anniversary of the birth of Tennessee Williams.  The Glass Menagerie was a wonderful production.  My first time at the Ford's Theater.  Yes, THAT Ford's Theater--the one were Lincoln was assasinated.

I would say that I was not impressed with the actor who played Tom.  He was both forceful, which is fine, and fey, which was distracting.  I wondered if he thought he was somehow channelling Williams himself?
