Wildcard Productions presents the Australian premiere of



Finalist Pulitzer Prize 2001
Voted number 4 in US Time Magazines 10 Best Plays of 2001

In a place where the boundaries of guilt and innocence are crossed, THE GLORY OF LIVING tells the story of Lisa, a neglected and abused teenager, who is manipulated into a world of abuse, sexual deviance and serial murder by her ex-con husband Clint. Behind them lies a trail of victims whose blood ends up on her hands alone. In front lies a future Lisa can neither comprehend nor alter.

In the land of the free, life is cheap ...
