‘The Glass Menagerie’ by The Mockingbird on Main – July 15
July 15, 2023 @ 8:00 pm
The Mockingbird on Main will present Tennessee Williams’ classic memory play, “The Glass Menagerie,” at the Quad-Cities Campus on July 7-8 and July 13-15.
The Mockingbird on Main’s theatre was located on the first floor of the building that collapsed May 28 in Davenport, Iowa. The 40-seat theatre has been closed since the collapse, and as the building is scheduled for demolition*, The Mockingbird is in search of a new home.
BHC alum Tristan Tapscott and his wife, Savannah Strandin, started The Mockingbird on Main in 2021 as an arts incubator and performance space for the Quad Cities. As a BHC student, Tapscott performed in several college productions.
Black Hawk College is happy to provide the theatre space for The Mockingbird production while they figure out their next steps.
Performances of “The Glass Menagerie” will be at 8 p.m. July 7-8 and July 13-15 at the college’s Quad-Cities Campus in Building 1, Room 308 (theatre). Guests should park in Lot 1 off 70th Street.
Tickets are $12 in advance and $15 at the door.
