Gloria Gloria
Gloria Gloria tells the story of twenty-four hours of chaotic and furious emancipation. A road out of bounds through excess, desire, and fire. The play tells the story of the day when, for no apparent reason, she steps out of her house, it’s dark. That day, the ordinary mechanics break down. The irreparable happens. Gloria dives, and frees herself, without a safety net and without looking back. A leap into the void that will lead her to a grand Hollywood-style finale.
