[REP] – The Repertory East Playhouse continues its 11th Season with the contemporary drama “Doubt: A Parable.” The winner of both the 2005 Pulitzer Prize and the Tony Award for Best Drama, has earned much critical acclaim. Written by John Patrick Shanley and directed by Mark Kaplan, “Doubt” features Jeff Johnson, Georgan George, Alli Kelly and REP newcomer Cherrelle Elan.
“All the elements come invigoratingly together like clockwork in this provocative new play. A gripping story of suspicion, “Doubt” is a lean, potent drama…passionate, exquisite … A gripping mystery, tightly written.” — Time Out NY
Based upon a few circumstantial details and a lot of intuition, the ultra-stern nun, Sister Aloysius Beauvier believes that one of the priests at the St. Nicholas Catholic Church and School has been molesting a 12-year-old boy named Donald Muller, the school’s only African American student. Sister Aloysius recruits a young, naive nun (Sister James) to assist her in monitoring the suspicious yet charismatic Father Flynn.
She also addresses her concerns to Donald’s mother, who surprisingly is not horrified or even shocked by the allegations. (Mrs. Muller is more concerned about her son getting into high school and avoiding a beating from his dad.) The play concludes with a confrontation between Sister Aloysius and Father Flynn as she attempts to get the truth out of the priest.
Doubt will run March 6 through April 4. Show times are Friday and Saturdays at 8 pm and Sundays at 2 pm. This show will sell out; advanced reservations are highly recommended.
