Description

Agnes of God is a riveting play about a cloistered novice (Kyra Lautier) who gives birth to a baby and slaughters it. A psychiatrist (Simone Ellul) is appointed to diagonse the mental health of the nun. Agnes is naive and does not know anything about the facts of life, though not the same thing can be said about Mother Superior (Monica Attard) who seems to be harbouring darker secrets. Agnes of God is a gripping and fast-paced thriller that will keep you on the edge of your seat, constantly asking questions. The intimate setting in a convent will make this production a more powerful experience. A discussion, facilitated by Dr Christian Colombo, will also be held on the 8th Decembebr at 8pm to discuss the dynamics of the play and to create a platform of dialogue between theists and atheists, focusing on the common longing that we all have for meaning in our lives. Measures protecting against the transmission of Covid have been  taken for the performance and for the discussion, including taking of temperature, social distancing and contact tracing. In the light of these measures, no programme will be distributed. If interested in a programme, you can request one on
