The stage management team comprises Davin Patrick as production manager, Julia Nimmo as company stage manager, and Rhea Cosford as assistant stage manager.

The Glass Menagerie will run from 28 February to 21 April, with performances at 7:30 pm and matinees on select dates. Tickets start at £10, with a special “No Empty Seats” initiative offering £5 tickets on the door for those aged 27 and under.
