Who's Nominated? - The Shows

Next FallNominated for 2 Awards
Geoffrey Nauffts's play takes a witty and provocative look at faith, commitment, and unconditional love. While the play's central story focuses on the 5-year relationship between Adam and Luke, it goes beyond a typical love story by forcing us all to examine what it means to "believe" and what it might cost us not to.
