Marian is visited by a Marian Apparition (just call her Mary, thanks) who tells them to write a play about the Blessed Virgin considering an abortion. Miryam is visited by the angel Gavri'el, who tells her she's to bear the son of God. And pomegranates keep fruiting up all around them, inviting them to make a choice.
A play about abortion, divine visions, mommy issues, daddy issues, the inherent homoeroticism of Catholic Ritual, iced coffee, and above all--choice.
