Gloria

Brandon Jacobs-Jenkins is one of the most exciting playwrights working in American theater today—which means tickets to his plays are hard to come by! I was thrilled to see that the original cast of his 2015 play GLORIA is reuniting for a benefit reading of the piece. The play opens on a group of editorial assistants at a prestigious magazine as they fight for a writing opportunity—but that’s just the beginning. What follows is a jarring, absurd satire about competition and toxic workplaces, and the extreme lengths to which some people will go to get ahead. It’s streaming through the 24th here!
