Glorious

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Disambiguation: Greek use of glorious is found in Kleinos.

Glorious is the title of British comedian and transvestite Eddie Izzard's 1997 performance at the Hammersmith Apollo in London. The performance was released on video/DVD and on CD. The CD version is a recording of a different night. Both performances cover topics such as the siege of Troy, Noah's Ark, the Royal Family to the birth of baby Jesus. The flow of topics in many ways follow from the Old Testament to the New Testament of the Holy Bible, starting with the beginning of time according to the Old Testament and ending with Armageddon according to the Book of Revelation. Although, in light of Izzard's style, it is not a serious look at the subject.

Izzard followed Glorious with Dress to Kill in 1999.
