Everything you wanted to ask Tennessee Williams himself

Last week, we invited the great Tennessee Williams scholar (and editor of the Tennessee Williams Annual Review) Dr Robert Bray in to answer questions we had collected over Twitter, Facebook, as well as from the cast and creative team.

We wanted to know whether it got awkward for his family that The Glass Menagerie got so big but that it was so clearly an autobiographical play, why Tennessee Williams leaves home and what his relationship with his family was like afterwards, which was his favourite play and character, whether he ever found love and happiness and much more…

A great big thank you goes out to Dr Robert Bray who took the time to come in all the way from the US to answer our questions! You can read more about his thoughts on Tennessee Williams and The Glass Menagerie by reading his intro in Penguins Books and New Directions’ version of The Glass Menagerie.

P.S. Subscribe to our new YouTube channel! Sadly, we’ve lost our old one.

We love poetry magnets

Even more, we love it when Young Vic friends come up with great sentences with our 40th Anniversary Season poetry magnets!

@richard_fitch sends us his best sentence. We like it.

Want your own set of magnets? Follow @youngvictheatre on Twitter and maybe we’ll do another round of magnets soon for our weekly #TantalisingTuesdays competition!
