Doubt, A Parable - BACK BY POPULAR DEMAND
Drama
By John Patrick Shanley
Back by popular demand. Audiences and critics alike raved when Doubt opened Caldwell’s Mainstage Season in its new theater this past December. Returning with the cast that made magic in its South Florida Premiere at Caldwell, Doubt features Pat Nesbit as Sister Aloysius, Terry Hardcastle as Father Flynn, Pat Bowie (2007 Best Supporting Actress in a Play Carbonell Award-Nominee for Doubt) as Mrs. Muller and Amy Montminy as Sister James in this morality tale set in a 1964 Bronx Catholic School. Winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize for Drama and four Tony Awards, including Best Play. “Caldwell’s Doubt casts absorbing spell of uncertainty.” Sun-Sentinel review, December 11, 2007. “Clashes of Doubt a fine debut for Caldwell’s new home.” Palm Beach Post review, December 11, 2007. “A Gem in our own Backyard.” Boca Raton Forum, December 19, 2007.

Amy Montminy, Pat Nesbit, Terry Hardcastle and Pat Bowie in Doubt, A Parable.
A Bronx Catholic school in 1964 sets the stage for this provocative and deeply moving winner of the 2005 Pulitzer Prize. Sister Aloysius questions whether a priest at their grade school is acting appropriately with children in her charge. Faced with a Hobson’s choice of speaking up without all the evidence or keeping quiet while a child may be in jeopardy, this four time Tony Award-winner explores the “What do you do when you’re not sure?” dilemma, pitting gut instincts against compassionate concern. “Even as Doubt holds your conscious attention as an intelligently measured debate play,” The New York Times said, “it sends off emotional stealth charges that go far deeper.” Featuring Pat Nesbit in the leading role.
