Doubt
June 6 - 29, 2008
by John Patrick Shanley
A riveting exploration of suspicion and paranoia in the Catholic Church. In 1964, as Vatican II reforms begin to transform the Church, Sister Aloysius, the principal of a Bronx parochial school, discovers evidence of inappropriate behavior by the beloved Father Flynn. Should she openly accuse the priest of his sins or bury her suspicions and live with the doubt? This Pulitzer Prize winning parable, nominated for 8 Tony awards, is a provocative mystery that turns on questions of deceit and redemption, faith and justice. As the playwright delves deeper into the conflict between nun and priest, the audience is kept in suspense until the final curtain.
