AGNES OF GOD
Center Stage is proud to present the second of this season's free Staged Reading series, Agnes of God by John Pielmeier and directed by Ann Holt. A novice nun (Claire Wagler) gives birth and insists that the child was the result of a virgin conception. A psychiatrist (Mary Lou Blanchard) and the mother superior of the convent (Candi Dunnigan) clash during the resulting investigation.
Agnes of God will be performed on October 3, 2015 at 2:00pm at the Jackson School of the Arts Ensemble Theatre, located at 634 Mechanic St. Jackson, MI 49203.
This is a free performance, with donations encouraged.
Please note that this performance contains some mature language.
Staged
Readings are different from regular plays or musicals in that actors
and actresses perform with scripts in hand, with minimal set, props and
blocking. The
Staged Reading Series is the brainchild of Ann Holt, who wrote and
applied for a grant for the series in 2009. The purpose of the Stages
Reading Series was to allow the community to become familiar with a wider variety of theatrical works and playwrights, allow more of the community to be active and involved in community theatre, allow community members that have never acted before a way to 'get their feet wet', and allow veteran actors and actresses the opportunity to perform without the committment of a regular show.
