Doubt

posted in: 2010-2011 Season, Past Seasons, Past Shows | 0

Doubt, winner of a 2005 Pulitzer Prize, Drama Desk Award and Tony Award, tells the tale of a nun in a Bronx Catholic school in 1964 who suspects a popular priest of inappropriate behavior with a student. Armed with nothing more than a resolute belief in her suspicion and a few circumstantial details, she instigates a relentless campaign to remove the priest, enlisting the help of a subordinate nun and the child’s tormented mother. The simple, yet ever-shifting plot leaves all four characters and the audience wondering whether they were justified in their thoughts, motives and actions. “An eloquent
and provocative investigation of truth and consequences. A gripping mystery, tightly written.” – Time Out New York.
