The Glass Menagerie

Thomas Lanier "Tennessee" Williams III (March 26, 1911 – February 25, 1983) was an American playwright. Along with Eugene O'Neill and Arthur Miller, he is considered among the three foremost playwrights of 20th-century American drama.

After years of obscurity, he became suddenly famous with The Glass Menagerie (1944), a play that closely reflected his own unhappy family background. This heralded a string of successes, including A Streetcar Named Desire (1947), Cat on a Hot Tin Roof (1955), and Sweet Bird of Youth (1959). His later work attempted a new style that did not appeal to audiences, and alcohol and drug dependence further inhibited his creative output. His drama A Streetcar Named Desire is often numbered on short lists of the finest American plays of the 20th century alongside Eugene O'Neill's Long Day's Journey into Night and Arthur Miller's Death of a Salesman. Much of Williams' most acclaimed work was adapted for the cinema. He also wrote short stories, poetry, essays and a volume of memoirs. In 1979, four years before his death, Williams was inducted into the American Theater Hall of Fame.

Abandoned by her husband, Amanda Wingfield comforts herself with recollections of her earlier, more gracious life in Blue Mountain when she was pursued by 'gentleman callers'. Her son Tom, a poet with a job in a warehouse, longs for adventure and escape from his mother's suffocating embrace, while Laura, her shy crippled daughter, has her glass menagerie and her memories. Amanda is desperate to find her daughter a husband, but when the long-awaited gentleman caller does arrive, Laura's romantic illusions are crushed.

在此剧中,所有人都在用自己的方式逃避现实。在这部关于回忆的剧中所有的希望都会落空。Tom他自顾不暇,身为诗人却在工厂工作,每晚通过看电影获取“冒险经历”。母亲对他有超出他愿望和能力的期盼,而他帮不了妹妹,帮不了自己,最后只能出走。看到这只想大哭一场。

这三天断断续续把这本看完。大师,您的人生确实是辛酸。读戏剧是从王尔德开始的,后来发现了田纳西。田老有蛮多部戏剧的,我目前买了2部。这本玻璃动物园是由通过作者在St. Louis时候的日子的生活改编成的戏剧。虽说整个篇幅没有任何一个细节然我有想落泪的冲动,但是田纳西曾经说过:"The saddest play I ever written. It's full of pain. It's painful for me to see it."剧中人物都在逃避着各自面对着他们的残酷的现实,只是逃避,没有对之做法抗。所以为什么田纳西会说这样的话可想而知。

这本描写的家庭关系要比A Streetcar Named Desire要让我痛苦,因为Amanda对儿子女儿的束缚和期望让人窒息,三人都在逃避现实,互相折磨,这种家庭关系要比Blanche的崩溃更有实感。而且Jim对自卑敏感的Laura的温柔和善解人意之后在对其的打击真是……令人绝望,不知道Laura最后会怎样;还有Tom那句:People go to the movies instead of moving. 最后Tom还是选择跟父亲一样了啊

上剧场围读剧本初体验。表演艺术还是需要表演,不能扶贫……
