Grace

by Mick Gordon and A.C. Grayling
directed by Tony Estrella

Mar 12-Apr 5, 2009

Grace Friedman is a mother, a wife and a brilliant professor of natural science. What’s more, her bold assertions on the “absurdity” of religion have placed her center stage in the public debate over the existence of God. But her private calm is shaken when her son, Tom, announces a career change from civil rights attorney to Episcopal priest. When Grace falls back on her hard-earned cynicism, she is suddenly at odds with the moral pragmatism of her husband, as well as her son’s fiancée. Together, the family tries to reconcile their ideological differences about faith and religion as they tumble toward personal catastrophe in this devastatingly powerful family drama.
