Amanda Wingfield is a faded remnant of Southern gentility who now lives in a dingy St. Louis apartment with her restless son, Tom, and her shy daughter, Laura. When Amanda persuades Tom to bring home a “gentleman caller” for Laura, the family’s illusions begin to crumble. This tender family drama established Tennessee Williams’ reputation as a great American dramatist of the twentieth century.
