Gloria is on the brink of making her triumphant return to the stage. A celebrated actor-a star, a celebrity-she's played every iconic role in the canon of theatrical greats: Nina, Hedda, Hamlet, Clytemnestra. She's burnt into our eyes, our hearts our imaginations.
Playing the real-life survivor of a sadistic crime, Gloria must immerse herself in the horror of her character's reality. As Gloria falls further into the abyss, the unravelling of her mind is reflected by the breakdown of order around her.
Through Gloria, we see a portrait of Australia afraid to acknowledge the widening gaps in our society.
