Faculty Performance Production: Gloria by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins.

Directed by Shawtane Bowen. This funny, trenchant, and powerful 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 to become higher than ever.

"These are people you can imagine being perfectly agreeable at home with their families. But at work, they become the fierce, feral creatures they need to be, even if they don't realize it. Rat races, after all, can't exist without rats..."
