Theatre in the Round Players Opens 71st Season with the Pulitzer-Prize Winning Drama, Doubt: A Parable
Theatre in the Round Players (TRP) opens its 71st season with the Pulitzer-Prize winning drama, Doubt: a Parable by John Patrick Shanley.
In this powerful drama, Sister Aloysius, a Bronx school principal, takes matters into her own hands when she suspects the young Father Flynn of improper relations with one of the male students. Written in 2004, partly in response to increasing political polarization, Doubt explores the nature of uncertainty with profound relevance to our current day.
Kari Steinbach directs the 4-member cast, with sets designed by Devyn Becker, costumes by A. Emily Heaney, sound by Mark Kieffer, props by Andrew Stam, and lighting by Bill Larsen.
An open audience discussion with members of the company will follow the performance on Sunday, October 9. To provide space for further exploration of the themes presented in this production, Theatre in the Round is also offering facilitated post-show discussions for private groups, including book clubs, churches, classes, and civic groups. Interested groups can email larisa@theatreintheround.org to schedule.
Tickets are $25. For information, call the theatre’s box office at 612-333-3010 or visit www.TheatreintheRound.org.
