The play that started it all, The Glass Menagerie, was Tennessee Williams's first big hit. Just like A Streetcar Named Desire, it bravely examines topics that were (and are still, to some degree) taboo topics. It's also said that the play mirrors Williams's own life—turns out, the drama wasn't just reserved for plays for this guy.
