Glory Days

  • Mathew Green: Glory Days

    A low-key conversation weighted with bittersweet reminiscence. Instantly relatable characters and a gentle touch throughout. These two could be sitting at the next table, which reminds us just how many meaningful stories are all around us. Great work.

    "Glory Days" is a warm, funny, and deeply affecting meditation on friendship, aging, regret, and the memories that shape our lives. George Sapio masterfully blends humor with heartfelt emotion, creating two authentic characters whose shared stories serve as a poignant reminder that while youth fades, the bonds forged in those years endure.

    Sapio’s subtle two-hander will speak to anyone of a certain age, not only because of its nostalgic, hit-the-bull’s-eye cultural references, but even more so because of the universality of its situation and the emotional truths that grow from it. As Milo and Glen pay tribute to their departed friend’s memory with drink and the bluster of glory days, they try to keep things light - on the surface at least. But it’s what lurks beneath that boozy surface that matters here. Bravo!
