A nun is accused of murdering her newborn baby. A psychiatrist appointed by the court must determine if Sister Agnes is insane or not. But, as the Mother Superior of the convent points out, Agnes is not the typical person, or even the typical nun. She seems almost incredibly naive, and perhaps she really is a holy innocent, close to God in a way more appropriate to the Middle Ages than today. Or is she merely insane? The psychiatrist, a lapsed Catholic with grievances against the church, is determined to probe deep to find out, while the Mother Superior, in desperate need of a focus for her shaky faith, is equally determined that Sister Agnes' simple piety will not be destroyed. John Pielmeier's script of faith and science provides the nucleus for a riveting theatre experience.
The cast includes Debbie Lockwood from Hackettstown, Becky Lieberman from Martins Creek, and Chelsea Scurato from Wind Gap. The show is under the direction of Gina Scurato of Harmony Township.
All seats are $17.00 with group rates available. Further information is available at countrygate.org
