Gloria (2027)

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 (Appropriate, Purpose), 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" (New York Times) Pulitzer Prize finalist play in its Broadway premiere.
