THE RUNNER STUMBLES! MAY 12-14, 2017
The Potomac Playmakers Announce Auditions for the Spring show of their historic 90th Anniversary Season, Milan Stitt's "The Runner Stumbles"! In this great drama based on actual events, a young nun has died under mysterious circumstances in a remote parish in northern Michigan, and her superior, Father Rivard, has been charged with her murder. The action alternates between interrogations, testimony and scenes from the past, which reveal that Father Rivard, who had been banished to the small, up-country parish, fell in love with Sister Rita; and when circumstances forced her to move into the rectory with him, his anguish became unbearable. Their relationship, inevitably, spelled tragedy, but not until the explosive and surprising climax of the play is the full extent of their sacrifice made clear and the identity of the murderer revealed. The cast consists of 5 male and 4 female roles of varying ages.
