The setting is a Catholic K-8 school in the Bronx in 1964. Sister Aloysius Beauvier, the strict principal of the school, begins to question the relationship between a
young priest and one of her students. The more strongly Father Flynn defends himself, however, the stronger Sister Aloysius’ suspicions become and the harder she pursues him. Fresh from Broadway, Doubt is one of the decade’s most highly acclaimed and talked-about drama – an entertaining and thought-provoking play.
