SALT LAKE CITY, UTAH (kuer) - Thursday on RadioWest, we're live from the Utah Shakespeare Festival in Cedar City. The festival is of course known for performing the works of the bard, but they also stage contemporary plays. This year, the season includes Tennessee Williams' 1944 classic The Glass Menagerie. 2011 marks the 100th anniversary of Williams' birth, and we're taking the opportunity to talk about his life, his plays and his enduring characters.

We were unable to broadcast today's show due to technical difficulties. Find here an abbreviated conversation with Utah Shakespeare Festival co-Artistic Director Brian Vaughn and the Cast of "The Glass Menagerie."
