Glorious is a hilarious and moving comedy based on the true story of the wealthy socialite dubbed the worst singer in the world. In 1940’s New York, Florence Foster Jenkins was the performer everyone wanted to see. An enthusiastic soprano whose pitch was far from perfect, Florence was “the first lady of the sliding scale”, warbling and screeching her way through performances to an audience who mostly fell about laughing. But this delusional and joyously happy woman paid little attention to her critics, supported by a circle of devoted friends almost as eccentric as her. This heartfelt play spins from Florence’s charity recitals and extravagant balls, through to her bizarre recording sessions, as we witness a true star follow her dreams all the way to her greatest triumph.
