world premiere

“A bishop. A priest. A woman. A boy.”

A forced reunion between a Catholic bishop and the woman he soiled when she was 15, while a priest preys on a trusting teen. Snatched from today’s headlines, “Altarcations” examines lust, absolution, accepting apologies, and whether any place is safe.

With Travis Michael Holder, Robert Keasler, Dylan Jones and introducing Drew Hellenthal. Written and directed by Steve Julian and developed at EST/LA’s playwright’s unit.
