The(ir) Blurb...

Henry Cyril Paget, the fifth Marquis of Anglesey, bankrupted himself despite an annual income of £8m in today's money. He did so by frittering it on beautiful fripperies and useless extravagances - he even modified his car so the exhaust sprayed perfume - and was known as the 'Dancing Marquis'.

This is the detail that performance artist Marc Rees focuses on in this arresting and at times thrillingly sensual combination of dance, film and sound, in his new production, 'Gloria Days' for which the this film was produced for.
