My character for the play, The Glass Menagerie, is Laura. Laura is an interesting character. She is super fragile. When I think of Laura, I think of something that is extremely lite and easily damageable, like a feather, or a dandelion seed, blowing in the wind. She has trouble controlling her own fate. That is the reason why when the wind blows, she gets swept up by the strong, cold, forceful air. And all the dandelion seed does is follow the wind and absorb all the sunlight it can possibly get. But sometimes the dandelion really wants more sunlight. It just has trouble going about anywhere without the wind. That is how Laura is. She really wants to get a career and meet the life of her life, a nice companion, but she feels as though she just cannot. Laura has a walking disorder. She feels as though it stops her from doing the things she wants to do. One of these things being attending business school. Laura is also very sensitive. She cares greatly about her loved ones, her brother acting as the main one she cared about in this play. Laura is also a representation of the glass menagerie itself. Her emotions are CLEARLY easy to see through. Her emotions are very clear. With a sudden move, word, she can break. There is nothing she can hide meaning her emotions are clear (her emotions mainly showing fear, sadness, want, awe through facial expressions and body language). When she finds the things that make her happy in life, she is less nervous and more happy, excited, full of life.she always remains a little secluded to herself even till the end.
