Off the Wall Theater presents:
" Agnes of God "
directed by Maggie Balsley
With Erika Cuenca as Agnes
Ingrid Sonnichsen as Mother Superior
Virginia Wall Gruenert as Dr. Livingstone
Dr. Martha Livingstone is a psychiatrist who is called in as part of the investigation when a dead infant is
found at a convent. The child is found to belong to solemn, naive Sister Agnes, who offers little information about
who the father is, or why (or if) she committed the crime. The Mother Superior is willing to help in the investigation
any way she can, but when the idea of a virgin birth is suggested, the agnostic Dr. Livingstone finds herself
in a heated dialogue pitting faith against science and asking the question: Do miracles really happen?
Friday, October 2, 2009 at 8:00pm - Saturday, October 17, 2009 at 10:00pm
