Quinto, of the <em>Star Trek<\/em> reboot, streaks Tom, the stand-in for Williams, with exasperation and surliness. His cruel abandonment of his family in the dark is all the more credible.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;There&#8217;s much to praise here,&#8221; said <em>Variety<\/em>&#8216;s <strong>Robert Hofler<\/strong>, &#8220;but the major revelation is Quinto, who presents a Tom (Tennessee&#8217;s real first name) who can, and does, go mano-a-mano with his near-monster of a mother, Amanda, played by Jones.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;These are two big, flamboyant performances. Tom warns us in the play&#8217;s first minutes that this isn&#8217;t life but rather memory, and like all things remembered, there&#8217;s a sense of exaggeration. Watching Jones and Quinto in those opening moments can be bracing, maybe even off-putting, but their many confrontations never fail to explode. Frankly, they&#8217;re at each other&#8217;s jugular right from the get-go.&#8221;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>For Zachary Quinto, now appearing in Tennessee William&#8216;s The Glass Menagerie, the reviews are favorable&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2413],"tags":[2475,4916],"class_list":["post-29414","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-cast-crew","tag-quinto","tag-the-glass-menagerie"],"featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","newsphere-slider-full":"","newsphere-featured":"","newsphere-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"T&#39;Bonz","author_link":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/author\/tbonz\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/categories\/cast-crew\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Cast &amp; Crew<\/a>","tag_info":"Cast &amp; Crew","comment_count":"1","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29414","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=29414"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29414\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":29420,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/29414\/revisions\/29420"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=29414"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=29414"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/trektoday.com\/content\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=29414"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
