The play made its debut Off-Broadway at the Vineyard Theatre in May 2015, after being developed by the same theatre.[1] It was a finalist for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama. PlotThe play takes place in modern-day Manhattan. It starts on a normal work day for a group of aspiring writers who are growing tired of the monotony of their desk jobs. Dean stumbles in hungover from a party at the home of the 'office freak', Gloria, the night prior. As the day goes on, everyone goes about their business, though tensions are high with a dispute over who should be allowed to write a story on a deceased singer, and Gloria begins to act stranger than usual. In a sudden shift in tone, Gloria shoots and kills many workers, including Miles and Ani, leaving Dean, Kendra, Nan, and Lorin alive. The story then follows the fallout of each character's life as they try to cope with the stress of witnessing the events and feud over who deserves a book deal based on the events of the shooting. Questions on the reasoning behind going postal and workplace toxicity are posed during the play.

ReviewsThe New York Times pointed out how, "whip-smart satire of fear and loathing in a beleaguered industry under siege," and, "the cannibal culture cycles that grip and warp Americans’ attention these days,"[8] are portrayed in the play. [https://newyorktheater.me/ New York Theatre] also credits the play with, "providing more illumination into the characters, and raising some intriguing questions, such as the ugliness of artistic ambition, the ways we individually and as a society process trauma, the exploitation and corruption inherent in our commercial culture."[9] The Hollywood Reporter also recognizes Jacob-Jenkins himself, as he, "handles his serious themes in a thoughtful, provocative manner."[10] Awards and nominationsGloria was a finalist for the 2016 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.[11]The play received nominations for:[12]
