A one-woman play and true story, Teri Bays, playwright and actress, portrays two women: herself and a radical nun, overcoming adversity, domestic abuse and injustice. Threads of their universal stories are woven around the strength and weakness of their mothers, their father's relationship with alcohol and an often unjust church. Joan takes on the Vatican, inspiring women, including Teri, who works in the church. Eventually, through humor and heartbreak along the way, we discover how Teri and Joan are connected to one another.
Scenes, portions of Joan's letters, books and speeches are used to further the story of her life.
Portions of wisdom are delivered from the podium until we hear the genius and humor of Joan's keynote address, an inspiring call to action.
Funny, heartbreaking, defining moments....
