The Glass Menagerie...

Everything is this play is unrealistic. All the characters are caught up in their own problems living in their own little world. Jim O'Connor seems to be the only "normal" character in this story and is at least is making something of himself. My favorite character is Tom; he gave up chasing his dream for getting a job at the factory to support his family which shows he has a big heart. He's the only one in his family who is actually trying to fix up his life by getting out and starting over.

Laura's glass collection is strange. I think her favorite is the unicorn because its like her. It stands out from the rest of them and doesn't fit in just like Laura. When the horn broke off I think it resembled her opening up and finally feeling like she fit in.

Overall, I didn 't really like this play and wouldn't recommend it. It just dragged on and on and I just didn't connect to it at all.
