The Waterfront Playhouse proudly presents Doubt, A Parable by John Patrick Shanley. Doubt is the most highly honored play in the last decade having been awarded the Pulitzer Prize and the Tony Award for Best Play, as well as 24 major theater awards.

Doubt is a gripping yarn that will propel you to the edge of your seat. Set in the Bronx in 1964, a rigid nun suspects a charismatic parish priest of improprieties with one of the male students. With absolute certainty, she investigates to find the truth, enlisting the help of a subordinate nun and the child's mother. Is the priest guilty or innocent? Doubt asks the audience to decide – when doubt ends, the conversation begins. “Provocative. A gripping story of suspicion,” according to “Variety.”

Mr. Weathers has assembled a first-rate cast: Joy Hawkins, the Artistic Director of The Red Barn Theatre, is an Equity actress, who has numerous directing and acting credits in Key West and regionally, as well as film and television credits. David Black has appeared on all the stages of Key West in such productions as “Reefer Madness,” “Urinetown” and “The Best Man.” Elena Devers has performed at the Red Barn and the Waterfront and is the marketing director for the Studios of Key West. Lela Elam is a guest Equity actress from Miami, where she has been in numerous productions, receiving a Carbonell Award for “In The Continuum.”

The film of "Doubt," starring Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman, is scheduled to appear at the Tropic Cinema in the coming weeks. In a unique collaboration, the Waterfront Playhouse and the Tropic Cinema have teamed up to promote both the stage and the film version of this extraordinary piece. Mark Slater of the Tropic and Danny Weathers have come up with cross-promotional ideas and believe this gives the Keys Community a unique perspective on how a stage production translates into a film version.
