  3. Gloria


This funny, trenchant, and powerful Pulitzer Prize Finalist play follows an ambitious group of editorial assistants at a notorious Manhattan magazine, each of whom hopes for a starry life of letters and a book deal before they turn thirty. But when an ordinary humdrum workday becomes anything but, the stakes for who will get to tell their own story become higher than ever. The New York Times calls Jacobs-Jenkins, who is a MacArthur Genius Grant recipient, one of the country's most original and unsettling artists." This whip-smart satire will be directed by the incomparable and longtime Alley Theatre artist James Black.

What a gut punch of a play is Branden Jacob-Jenkins’s Gloria, and what a tight and well-paced rendition 4th Wall Theatre Company has offered. The script maintains a remarkable self-awareness that manages to stay ahead of the audience’s assumptions and even subvert them. All of this is tapped into to great effect by director James Black, along with a talented cast of actors.
