Summoned to a convent, Dr. Martha Livingstone, a court-appointed psychiatrist, is charged with assessing the sanity of a novice accused of murdering her newborn. Miriam Ruth, the Mother Superior, determinedly keeps young Agnes from the doctor, further arousing Livingstone’s suspicions. Who killed the infant, and who fathered the tiny victim? Livingstone’s questions force all three women to re-examine the meaning of faith and the power of love, leading to a dramatic, compelling climax.

John Pielmeier's provocative drama, a gripping and dynamic showcase for three strong actors, was a hit on Broadway and on film.

Agnes of God was awarded the Tony Award for Best Featured Actress in a Play for Amanda Plummer's performance, and Geraldine Page was nominated for Best Actress in a Play for her role in the Broadway production
