Photo Flash: First Look at Branden Jacob-Jenkins' GLORIA at the Vineyard Theatre

Vineyard Theatre's (108 E. 15 St.) world-premiere of Branden Jacobs-Jenkins' newest play GLORIA began previews Thursday, May 28 and will open Monday, June 15. Evan Cabnet directs GLORIA, with a cast that includes Jeanine Serralles, Jennifer Kim, Catherine Combs, Kyle Beltran, Michael Crane and Ryan Spahn. BroadwayWorld has a first look at the cast in action below!

The latest work from the writer of such acclaimed plays as AN OCTOROON, APPROPRIATE, WAR and NEIGHBORS, GLORIA is Mr. Jacobs-Jenkins' funny, trenchant and powerful new play that 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 30. But when an ordinary humdrum workday becomes anything but, the stakes for who will get to tell their own story become higher than ever.

GLORIA has scenic design by Takeshi Kata, costume design by Ilona Somogyi, lighting design by Matt Frey and sound design by Matt Tierney.

Tickets to GLORIA are on sale now. For more information, call the box office at (212) 353-0303 or visit www.vineyardtheatre.org.
