In one of Ernest’s first plays, young actors gathered in a green room confess their fantasies and fears as they attempt a production of THE GLASS MENAGERIE on the main stage upstairs. In Act Two, a decade later, the college is again mounting the Williams play and nothing has changed, except everything in the actors’ lives. The one who went to Hollywood and became a TV star, the one who stayed behind to teach, the one making a so-called guest appearance, all older and wiser and sadder and still stubbornly, in spite of themselves, trying to live the dream.
