Synopsis

This beautiful play by the star of TV's Benson wowed audiences and critics at the Philadelphia Festival Theatre for New Plays.

A manic alcoholic who knows the score and a nun who denies that she is an alcoholic are at a rehabilitation center.

In the moving climax, she finally acknowledges her problem and takes the painful first step towards sobriety.
