Pactrick Shanley's provocative play, Doubt, is a gripping story of suspicion cast on a priest's behavior that is less about scandal than about the fascinatingly nuanced questions of moral certainty. Blunt yet subtle, manipulative but full of empathy for all sides, the play could not be timelier. Doubt is a lean, potent drama, passionate, exquisite, important and engrossing. making the most of a muted but evocative palette in the pursuit of truth's shadows.
