A Hockey Story that Swings!
In 1933, four friends set out to prove to Canada that hockey isn’t just a sport for men. But with the Great Depression weighing heavily on the nation and political tensions rising in Europe, can they overcome the odds, and people’s expectations, to forge their own path to glory? Told through music and dance inspired by the jazz age, Glory is a thrilling hockey story that proves a woman’s place is on home ice.
“Playwright and choreographer Tracey Power delivered what the Flames and Oilers could not, namely 2 ½ hours of bittersweet, entertaining and uplifting sports drama”… The Globe and Mail
