Pacific Theatre's DOUBT Opens 3/2


How far would you go to protect a child? In John Patrick Shanley's Doubt, a Parable, presented by Pacific Theatre, Sister Aloysius is faced with this very question. Her answer is swift and ferocious: if a child's welfare is at stake, there is no time to waste. She acts. So when suspicions are raised that the young priest Father Flynn is spending too much time with one of the young male students, she does not hesitate. Hit by her fierce crusade Father Flynn is left to defend his actions, but without concrete proof on either side both are guided only by the strength of their convictions and the nagging of their doubts to guide them.
