The Glass Menagerie – Play – The Original Theatre Black Dog

Elevator Thoughts (aka Tweet): The Glass Menagerie play by The Original Theatre Black Dog at eXit SPACE NOD Theatre. Artsy almost poetic piece capturing several universal human experiences like escapism, aimless inadequacy, regretful loss, longing, & dashed hope. Unusual that the 2nd act was better than the 1st (usually the opposite).

Type: Play

World Premiere: No

Other Rant(s)

  • There was no heat in the theatre space. Turn on the A/C!
  • The stage was huge! I suggest adding a curtain closer to the audience to fill the area.
  • Arguments between the son and mother had so much more potential for dramatic forceful dialogue.
  • The restaurant/bar next door was too noisy. Although, I overheard some attendees mistakenly thought it was an intentional audio track of the city!
  • Since the stage is originally a dance studio and since the studio is so big, the space doesn’t have good acoustics to project the actors’ lines. I suggest giving the actors microphones or choosing a smaller theatre space.
