Under Construction: A New Play Series by Trinity St. Players

presents
Meek by Diana Small

The Trinity St Players invite you to “Under Construction” our New Play Series. This April we are reading Meek by Diana Small.

Loosely inspired by the life and personality of activist Father John Dear, the piece wrestles with how to not only protest, but overpower people and forces that seem to be entirely evil.

THE STORY: A nonviolent activist priest is on a book tour and lands in the city of his estranged adult daughter, Angie. Angie is a nurse in a hospital and is caring for an inmate who is being treated for Stage IV cancer: this inmate became famous for killing a government official who willingly allowed chemical waste into public water that poisoned thousands of people. In this story, the world of the priest, the nurse, and the inmate collide.

ABOUT THE TEAM: Directed by Jenny Larson. Featuring actors Lee Eddy, Buck Eddy-Blair, James Dean Jay Byrd, khattieQ, Robert Joseph, and Mitchell Thomas.

THE ARTIST: Diana Small writes, directs, produces and performs for theater and film. She makes comedic work that explores the body, gods, death and change. dianalynnsmall.com
