         Glimmer         Life Long

Glimmer

Synopsis:
We called the show Glimmer, because in dark times what is the thing you can look to?, asks Jess Thorpe, co-artistic director of Glas(s). And the answer is each other. Its not about stuff or shopping or all the things it sometimes feels like its about. To illustrate her point, Thorpe has recruited real-life sisters Megan and Rosie, only one of whom is filled with the Christmas spirit. Megan has forgotten how to feel joyful about the season, explains Thorpe. Shes focussing more on the fact that its cold and dark. So the story of the show is her sister trying lots of different ways to remind her whats important: spending time with the people you love.
