Family differences become amplified when faith is the main point of conversation AND contention in Jon Klein’s latest comic drama. Aging atheist Gus and his two adult stepchildren – a minister suffering from a crisis of faith, and his hardened, non-believer sister who’s had a glimpse of the afterlife following a head injury – come together when Gus’ teenage, adopted daughter stuns them with her decision that she’d like to become a nun. From the author and director of Stage Guild’s 2019 hit Resolving Hedda. Area Premiere. By Jon Klein. Directed by WSG Associate Artistic Director Steven Carpenter, featuring Ben Blackman, Patricia Hurley, Ron Litman, and Hannah Taylor.
