Gloria

New York, NY

In the cutthroat offices of a prestigious New York City magazine, a group of low-level employees frantically try to claw their way up the corporate ladder. Ruthless and driven, they’re willing to do almost anything to get ahead – even as their once-glamorous industry collapses around them. With sharp, cutting wit, Gloria expertly skewers the absurd, dog-eat-dog world of early-career professional life in the 2010s.

From two-time Tony and Pulitzer Prize winner Branden Jacobs-Jenkins (2016 Creative Capital Awardee), one of the most astonishing and original voices of our time, comes a biting — and ultimately shocking — dark comedy about how far people will go to satisfy their ambition. Second Stage Artistic Director Evan Cabnet directs this “whip-smart” (The New York Times) Pulitzer Prize finalist play in its Broadway premiere.
