*Correction: Please join us for the second week of THE TESTAMENT OF MARY with Anne McEvoy!* *"Mary’s words sing and McEvoy soars

Imagine the most iconic mother of all time telling her private version of a story we thought we knew. Colm Toibin’s retelling of the pivotal events in the life of Jesus Christ through the eyes of Mary the survivor challenges us to imagine the suffering, courage and strength of mothers on a colossal scale -- up close and personal. Prepare to join a gifted playwright and performer in a one-of-a-kind solo journey that will leave you with new insight and questions, along with a deeper appreciation for human endurance in the context of mystery.
"Mary stripped bare... A private tete-a-tete with a woman who has an extraordinary story to tell."
-- The New York Times
