  1. how can we create the feeling that Laura is separated from the world?
    1. When she sits down there is background noise but then when she is using her glass menagerie and a lonely song plays in the background.  
  2. How would laura's personality change if she didn't have a crippled leg?
    1. Laura’s personality would change greatly if her leg wasn't crippled. She would become happier with her life. Laura’s main character flaw is that she is too shy. This stemmed off of her limp. She recalled going up the stair to the music room as if sounding like thunder. This enabled her to have a normal high school experience. She never had the courage to approach Jim and tell him how she felt. She is extremely insecure solely about her leg. If her leg was never crippled there is no evidence to think that Laura would still be an introvert.
  3. do you think Amanda has a social problem?





  What is the significance of the unicorn? What does it represent and what does the breaking of it and Laura’s response to the breaking reveal?
Is Jim a likable character? Why and/or why not? Defend your opinion with evidence from the play.
tom is stressed everytime his mom tells him he smokes to much it makes him smoke more. he uses smoking as a temorary escape from his normal life
