Divine Truth

45 MINUTE PLAY

Blind faith after a recent death causes a break with reality when grief is not properly dealt with within this Christian Science family. Here, matter is false, disease does not exist, death is not acknowledged, and truth depends on who is telling it.

    This play was beautiful and chaotic in the best way. Twisting relationship dynamics, god, metaphysical understanding, and everything in between.

    Wow! What a story. Divine Truth delves into the inner realms of a family coping with the life issues of love, death, marriage, parenting, an intense religious doctrine, and all the emotions that spring out of them after a personal tragedy. It’s quite the story. Well done, Debra Cole!
