Director: Leta Hall
This "dark comedy about the dark ages"
tells the story of the Monks of Priseaux whose holy relics are no
longer bringing in the pilgrims; Jack & Marie, minstrels who
are married "in the eyes of all but the church and the law!";
Marie's mother, a peasant woman who will sell anything or anyone;
and Abbess Agatha who is competing with the monks for pilgrims (and
especially their donations).
In this fast-paced, perfect for summer, farce all
converge on Priseaux looking for money or miracles or -- better
yet -- both.
"A farcical romp, scintillating and irreverent."
—Philadelphia Weekly.
