The Glass Menagerie
There is always a beginning. In January 2001, Cal’s current Drama program got under way with a production of Tennessee Williams’ The Glass Menagerie. Members of its small, five-person cast now attend UC Berkeley, UC Davis, UC Irvine, and the Academy of Art in San Francisco, at the time, however, there were gifted eighth graders working under the direction of first time director, Michael Holt. Little did any of them know that the program would become funded by the local community, lead to a connection with the Sacramento Theater Company, or lead to the refurbishing of Cal’s once run-down main stage.
