For the Love of a Glove is an unauthorized musical about Michael Jackson’s life, as told by his glove. In this world, the glove responding to the name Thrihl-lha , is an alien being that becomes the source of Michael’s musical prowess. All Michael is asked of in return is to allow Thrilla the ability to feed off of his pure, virgin blood
For the Love of a Glove is an absurd piece filled with Jackson Five inspired Motown hits, old school Berry Gordy R&B, and musical theater pop. With a piece spanning multiple genre’s, the mix sets the tone and makes the musical stylings feel natural without compromising clear diction.
