Alms

Beliefs collide in darkly comic but ultimately meaningful ways in this late-night meeting of a zealous young Catholic convert, an involuntarily retired sportswriter, and the nun who taught him fifty years earlier as they assemble packages for the homeless - alms for the poor. This compelling play co-authored by TJ Elliott and BBC personality and Wall Street Journal columnist Joe Queenan for a sold-out 2019 Off-Broadway run sharply examines how saints may also be sinners and even a quest for forgiveness can be funny. A dark comedy about Catholisism.
