DOUBT, A PARABLE
By John Patrick Shanley
Directed by Robert Horn
January 20 through February 5
Fridays and Saturdays at 8PM, Sundays at 2:30PM
A riveting clash of conscience and conviction turns the stuff of headlines into exquisite, engrossing drama. When she suspects a popular and dedicated priest of misconduct with a student, Sister Aloysius takes matters into her own hands. But doubt thwarts all assumptions in this ambiguous mystery, clouding truth with complexity, and righteousness with remorse. Winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Drama.
