In April, 2018 I Stage Managed a production of Brandon Jacob-Jenkin’s Pulitzer nominated play, Gloria at the Asolo Repertory Theatre.
“A whip-smart satire. A sharp-toothed comic drama with a whole lot to say.” – The New York Times
Style. Status. Success. A group of twenty-something editorial assistants are pursuing it all at one of New York’s most esteemed cultural magazines. But declining readership, diminishing advertising revenue and forced layoffs have employees tense and bitchy behind their cubicle walls. When a seemingly normal day at the office turns out to be anything but, these aspiring journalists are given inspiration in a way they never expected. A Pulitzer Prize-finalist and one of The New York Times Best Theater Picks of 2015, this hilariously dark and shocking play takes audiences on an unpredictable, unnerving journey to a simple and very human insight.
