Synopsis

Two female choruses.

No formal scenery.

Background projections and extensive music continuity required.

This moving play tells of a French community of nuns who were guillotined during the French revolution.

It is especially the story of one nun who fears death and another who eagerly embraces martyrdom.

And it is the once fearful nun who gains martyrdom which is denied the other.
