PMA alumna Gloria Majule has been busy since her graduation in 2017. After Cornell, she worked as a literary intern at Manhattan Theatre Club and as a content and creative intern at Ambassador Theatre Group. She was then accepted into the Yale MFA Playwriting program and started in August 2018. She is currently looking forward to participating in Yale’s first-year writing workshops, entitled New Play Labs, in January, as well as performing in School Girls; or, the African Mean Girls Play by Jocelyn Bioh at the Yale Cabaret.
Majule met Pulitzer Prize–winning playwright Suzan-Lori Parks when Parks came to Yale for a week after winning Yale’s Windham Campbell Prize for Drama. She did a reading of her work, and afterward Majule met with Parks, along with the rest of her first-year cohort. Majule says, “It was honestly such an amazing experience. She is super funny and super nice. I was definitely starstruck.” In addition to meeting Suzan-Lori Parks, Majule took classes this semester with other great writers like Tarell Alvin McCraney, Sarah Ruhl, and Jackie Sibblies Drury.
