Tennessee William's "The Glass Menagerie" opens Thursday night at the Booth Theatre in New York City.

The production's sold-out run at the American Repertory Theater in Cambridge, Mass., was critically acclaimed for bringing new life into a play that has been frequently performed by high schools and community theaters around the country.

In March, Here & Now host Robin Young sat down with the entire cast to talk about approaching the American classic. We revisit that interview.
