BOOK OF MERCY
“It’s a
gift— madness. That only a rare few can
manage.”
– Stella in Book of Mercy
A mystical revelation awaits a woman when she
confronts the mystery behind the 12th step. Set
in an elite drug rehabilitation center, Book of
Mercy is a story about the simple and the eccentric,
working their way through remorse, recovery and
redemption.
“Director Ann
Filmer guides the players through it with a sharp
ear for as much what they say as what they keep
unsaid, heightening Becker's themes of isolation
of the heart and how we choose to deal with unbearable
pain and loss, as well as the demands and rewards
of friendship and love… a moving and ultimately
uplifting presentation of a passionate new work.”
