A priest discovers a distressed teenage boy praying in his church and offers him help. What ensues is a captivating game of cat and mouse, where nothing is as it seems. This script packs a punch in such a short runtime, diving headfirst into complex territory with two flawed characters. Probus has gifted us with a play that is not only thematically rich—raising vital questions about faith, corruption, and vampirism—but is also incredible entertaining. Highly recommend!

Intense, parable-like in its simplicity, sacramental in its treatment of doubt and faith. The best vampire tales are allegorical, and this short, smart piece gives us so much in its examination of a character's struggles with their identity. We open and end on prayer; in between is an acre of guilt, absolution, hypocrisy, and anguish both physical and emotional. A vital, moving play.

The dilemma that confronts Gabriel is multidimensional: a devout Catholic, openly queer, and a vampire. How do they reconcile these elements of their life? Trying to gain absolution in the confessional carries with it the additional awareness that Father Harris is also dealing with their own past, of which Gabriel is fully aware. Both occupants of the confessional have more to deal with than recited rosaries. They both need to find the Light, and this play does not hold back.
