The small town of Elroy, South Carolina is thrust into the
spotlight when what seems to be the image of Jesus
appears on a refrigerator in a trailer park. The discovery
by three trailer park residents, sets into motion a frenzy
of conflict, and good old fashioned commerce. When
the National Investigator turns the appearance into
front-page headlines, their trailer park becomes a
Mecca for miracle seekers and soul searchers. Through
the ordeal, the three undergo an evolution in their
relationships with each other. God surely moves in
mysterious ways. (We suggest PG-14)

Catherine, the brilliant twenty-something daughter of an
esteemed mathematician has just laid her father to rest.
A once gifted professor, he died after suffering through
a prolonged mental illness. When a former student
discovers a wealth of profound, cutting-edge calculations
he assumes they were written by his professor. Can
Catherine provide the proof that the work is hers? Or
that she is not mentally ill like her father? Winner of
both the 2001 Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award for
Best Play.
