The middle-aged woman finds herself in a self-inflicted trap of baking, cleaning, and watching "The Accept Your Fate Bible Hour". Until the fateful day when she and her thrill-seeking best friend LUCENE discover the face of Ezekiel the Prophet in an expired cup of tapioca pudding. Now the world is opening up for them, as they are beset by DANNY DANBERT (a questionable accountant with dreams of his own), MARTY (Doris' estranged hyper-skeptical daughter), and a host of pilgrims wishing to be healed by the miraculous pudding. It's not long before Doris finds herself the president of The Dairy Miracles Network, dancing with TAPPY, the official mascot of the network, and working to crush anything that stands in the way of Ezekiel's ever-expanding empire. How far will she go? And do any of us ever truly pass our expiration date? - Joel Markowitz, dc theatre scene | |||||
