Glorious!: The True Story of Florence Foster Jenkins, the Worst Singer in the World By Peter Quilter Based on a true story, this hilarious and heartwarming comedy tells the story of Florence Foster Jenkins, a delusional and joyously happy socialite who, despite having no singing ability, performed enthusiastically for bemused audiences in 1940s New York.
The performer who everyone wanted to see live, an enthusiastic soprano whose pitch was far from perfect. Known as “The First Lady of the Sliding Scale,” she paid little attention to her critics, instead she was surrounded by a circle of devoted friends who were almost as eccentric as she was.
This amateur production of “Glorious!: The True Story of Florence Foster Jenkins, the Worst Singer in the World” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals Ltd. on behalf of Samuel French Ltd.
A non-professional play by PBTC performed in the Alex Wilding Room.
