Cavan | Arts and Media | By P.T. <h4>Event Time: Saturday, May 27 2017</h4>
<P>The Ramor Theatre Presents<br />
<br />
Doubt: A Parable with Peter Trant, Liz O'Hanlon, Emer Sexton & Agnes Efemuai. Directed by Padraig McIntyre<br />
<br />
Doubt: A Parable is an exquisite, potent drama that will raise questions and answer none, leaving the audience to grapple with the discomfort of their uncertainties.<br />
<br />
The play is set in the fictional St. Nicholas Church School, in the Bronx, during the fall of 1964. There is Father Flynn, a beloved and progressive parish priest. There is the school’s principal, Sister Aloysius, a rigidly conservative nun, who harbours a deep mistrust toward her students, her fellow teachers, and society in general. And there is Naïve and impressionable, Sister James.<br />
<br />
Sister Aloysius and Father Flynn are put into direct conflict when she learns from Sister James that the priest met one-on-one with Donald Muller, St. Nicholas’ first African-American student. Mysterious circumstances lead her to believe that sexual misconduct occurred. Aloysius, dissatisfied with Flynn’s explanation, meets with Donald’s mother, Mrs. Muller.<br />
<br />
With no actual proof that Father Flynn is or is not innocent, the audience is left with its own doubt. <br />
<br />
Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama and Tony Award for Best Play 2005.<br />
