Gloria Gloria

No one is suspicious of Gloria. Caught between an apathetic companion and a taciturn boss, she cooks pasta, vacuums, sings Balavoine, smokes roulées and sighs at regular intervals. From dawn to night, her life is a succession of schedules and obligations, for which regular calls to Rita, her best friend, are the only comfort.

Nothing seems destined to change. Yet that day, the routine goes off the rails. A fateful event sweeps Gloria into a hellish incendiary whirlwind, freeing her from everything that hinders her.

Alternating Gloria's point of view and Rita's a posteriori, the text reconstructs, hour by hour, in a frantic rhythm, the circumstances of those 24 hours when everything turns upside down.

A text both funny and touching, featuring Patti Smith, Aya Nakamura and the reincarnation of the Virgin Mary as a drag-queen,Gloria Gloria is the tale of the furious and spectacular emancipation of an ordered life, into which adventure, freedom and desire can finally seep.
