WHAT IS IT ABOUT?

Martin and Daniel Glimmer are twin brothers torn apart by the very music and hard-living lifestyles that once joined them. The estranged siblings are reunited by a series of circumstances, unraveling years of secrecy and enabling an unlikely romance between Daniel's daughter Delia and Martin's protégé Jordan. Choices made years before still reverberate in several lives, and each makes new connections with long-forgotten melodies. John Spencer stars in the New York premiere of Glimmer, Glimmer and Shine, a new play by Warren Leight (author of the Tony Award-winning Side Man). Evan Yionoulis directs.

Glimmer, Glimmer and Shine is peopled by three musicians[...]
