No "Doubt", Bradley Playhouse always stirs emotion

I've said it  before, and I'll say it again; I love the Bradley Playhouse!

Always an appreciative season ticket holder, I get to see them all.
The musicals, the comedies, the dramas... the classic and the new.

I always leave singing, laughing, or close to tears.

The current show is Doubt.
Set in the early 1960s in a catholic school and parish in NYC.

It featured just four actors/characters;
1) nun/principal of the catholic school - very suspicious, strict and all those things you'd associate with an old school nun
2) nun/teacher - young, innocent, trusting, full of hope
3) priest - seems like a caring man, you know what suspicions will befall him
4) mother of a school boy - the first black child in the school, and the only one to this point, who was befriended by the priest. Principal nun assumes the priest sought more than friendship...

Boy did Doubt make you think, wonder, get mad, and even Doubt. Well, obviously that was the point.
It brings into question many things... I'd have like to take an exit poll of everyone on the way out the door to see if they thought that Father Flynn was guilty or not. What would their vote say about them and their thought processes? Why did they vote guilty or not? Past experiences, prejudices?

Go see the play and tell me how you vote. I vote innocent!

Go see any play at a local theater in your area, and you are always welcome to the Bradley Playhouse in Putnam.

I am a Putnamaniac because I love to take myself to the Bradley Playhouse!
