When I saw this photo, girls, I knew I had to share it with you. It brought back memories of that magical afternoon in October of 2013--almost eight years-- when David and I saw Celia Keenan-Bolger's luminous performance as Laura Wingfield in John Tiffany's brilliantly staged production of Tennessee Williams' "The Glass Menagerie--" to this day, the best production of this work I have ever seen.
I could not take my eyes off Celia, who mesmerized me with her dazzling transition here from musical theater, to full scale drama. Even though I am happy she finally won a TONY Award, for playing Scout Finch, she also deserved it here.
Celia's performance as Laura was breathtaking, beautiful, and heartbreaking.
I feel privileged to say I have seen it.
May you create more theatrical memories for us, Celia!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
