Doubt - A parable by John Patrick Shanley at The English Theatre of Hamburg

The ground-breaking Pulitzer prize-winning play about faith, and what it means to follow what you feel is right even when there’s no evidence

Set in a Catholic school in the vibrant streets of the Bronx in 1964, an unsettling atmosphere drenches the corridors. Sister Aloysius, the strict principal, is more feared than admired by her students. Her polar opposite seems to be the charismatic school’s priest Father Flynn, who has a natural connection to the pupils.

Yet, beneath the surface of this seemingly harmonious environment, whispers of discontent and suspicion begin to emerge. When Sister Aloysius becomes suspicious of Father Flynn, a battle of wills ensues and doubts grow about his innocence or guilt.

DOUBT is a multi-layered play that explores themes of faith, morality, and the complexity of truth, leaving the audience to ponder the nature of certainty and doubt.
