Glow's annual Summer Festival Season welcomes over 100 artists and 5,000 audiences members to participate in innovative and thought-provoking productions. Glow's groundbreaking work includes a re-imaging of Gounod's Romèo et Juliette that sparked dialogue about the treatment of immigrants in the South. In 2019, Glow collaborated with Jasmine Road and Safe Harbor on Best Little Whorehouse in Texas and Carmen, illuminating the effect of sex trafficking and domestic abuse on South Carolina women. New works devised include Armed, a performance responding to and reflecting on US gun violence, and Love is Love, a Valentine Cabaret created by and celebrating the LGBTQIA community.
