The original 1982 Broadway premiere of John Pielmeier’s gripping three-woman drama 'Agnes of God' electrified audiences at the Music Box Theatre with its tense investigation into the boundaries between psychological pathology and religious miracles. The plot unfolds as a court-appointed, cynical psychiatrist enters a cloistered convent to evaluate a young novice nun accused of infanticide, engaging in a fierce, intellectual battle of wills with the fiercely protective Mother Superior who believes the girl's pregnancy was an act of God. Directed by Michael Lindsay-Hogg, the production was illuminated by the legendary performances of Amanda Plummer in her Tony-winning turn as Agnes, Geraldine Page, and Elizabeth Ashley.
