The Old Faith, Hope, & Charity 2025
The Old Faith, Hope, & Charity, by Pat Cook
Directed by Vaughn Hardman
Assisted by Ed Sanders
Performance dates: April 5, 6, 11, 12, 13, 2025
Rural physician Peter Farraday recruits his big city replacement using his finely-tuned country instinct and ability to read people.
Or maybe that’s a load of pig manure.
What will happen when Dr. Marcus discovers the truth? Will Ernie ever learn his wife’s real name? What the heck is in Mrs. Kimbrough’s medicine? Is Dr. Perkins in on all of this?
AND WHO IS PERCY?
It’s a grand collision of old ways and new, with plot twists, hilarious misunderstandings, a love triangle, and an oddly familiar assortment of small-town patients!
