'Gloria' by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins at American Lives Theatre

A group of ambitious assistants compete for a big promotion and a little self-respect in this stirring satire. The kind of play that definitely leaves you talking, this Pulitzer-Finalist is as shocking as it is hilarious. This opening marks not only the Indianapolis premiere of this off-Broadway hit, but also the first production from American Lives Theatre, a new downtown company devoted to producing provocative and entertaining work that reflects on what it means to live in America right now.
