Second Stage: Gloria

Raleigh Little Theatre presents Gloria as part of its Second Stage Series, an initiative featuring staged readings of bold and contemporary works. This program highlights stories and perspectives not typically seen on the mainstage, focusing on challenging narratives that provide a fresh theatrical experience for the audience. The staged reading of Gloria, written by Branden Jacobs-Jenkins and directed by Emma Clements, exemplifies this mission. Attendees will experience an intimate performance that prioritizes the core elements of the script and its complex themes. The production strips away elaborate technical elements to allow the raw power of the writing and the actors performances to take center stage. This event is designed for theater lovers who enjoy thought provoking stories and intimate performance spaces. It is ideal for those who prefer active, contemporary plays that spark conversation and offer unique artistic insights. The atmosphere is casual, welcoming, and focused entirely on the art of storytelling. Join us for this presentation of a compelling modern work and experience the mission of the Second Stage Series firsthand. Tickets are available now, and we encourage early booking to secure your seat in this limited capacity setting.
