 Miami, FL (September 17, 2024) – From Pulitzer Prize winner Stephen Adly Guirgis, comes this critically acclaimed dark comedy about the American justice system and the contradictory nature of faith. A darkly comedic meditation on redemption and faith takes place in the Riker’s Island prison. Angel Cruz is a 30-year-old bicycle messenger awaiting trial for the death of the leader of a religious cult. Inside Rikers Island, a terrified Angel is befriended by a charismatic serial killer named Lucius Jenkins.
