‘The Glass Menagerie’ by Tennessee Williams

Hello Tennis and Theatre Lovers!

In addition to my duties Helming the Challenge Ladder, I am also directing ‘The Glass Menagerie’ for Gloucester Stage Company and we open in early June. It’s a charming and very intimate theatre right on the harbor. And it’s Tennessee Williams!

I really am excited about the actors and designers and how we are presenting this timeless story and hope you’ll come see.

AND, as a special Tennis Family Bonus, if you type in:

‘Dream’ closing May 4th!

Hi Tennis Friends!

Thanks to those who have already been to the show and reached out to me. We have tomorrow (Sunday at 2 pm) and then one more weekend of shows next week of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’ over at the Mosesian Center for the Arts in Watertown. Very fun, very sexy production and it flies by in a little over 90 minutes (no intermish!) Very late 1990s Limelight Club in NYC.

I am playing Bottom.

That’s all you need to know.
