Agnes, a convent novice, gives birth but does not believe she has. After the child is found dead, a court-appointed psychiatrist sent to investigate clashes with the convent’s Mother Superior. This provocative mystery explores the meaning of faith, the power of love, and leads to a compelling climax.

Last night I witnessed a masterclass in acting performance…start to finish the production was spellbinding…the three (actors) had a realistic chemistry together that made me forget I was watching a play. My thanks and admiration for an unforgettable night of theatre. Cheers to a great run!
