Murder in the Cathedral

August 19 @ 7:00 PM


Join us on Tuesday, August 19th, for a rare staged reading of T.S. Eliot’s astonishingly relevant “Murder in the Cathedral”—a verse play and moral drama about the assassination and martyrdom of Thomas Becket, Archbishop of Canterbury, in his cathedral in 1170.

The play delves into the nature of temptation, the significance of martyrdom, and the role of faith in a world characterized by political and religious tensions.

Directed by Lenwood Sloan. Admission is free. Available in person only. An audience discussion with the director and cast on the social significance of the play for our time will follow the performance.
