Made Glorious

Rory is a bold antihero who, like Shakespeare's Richard III, speaks directly to the audience, openly admitting her charm, manipulation, and ruthless ambition to land the lead role in her school's senior musical. As a scholarship student often teased for her weight, she presents herself as an underdog, making it easy to root for her even as her actions grow more dangerous.

With a layered narrative that blends multiple viewpoints, script excerpts, and an original musical score, this sharp, fast-paced story explores the darker side of high school theater. It draws readers into Rory's schemes, forcing them to question their own support as her pursuit of success turns increasingly extreme.
