Written on Mar 25 2012I thoroughly enjoyed seeing Kathleen Turner on stage. She was perfect in the role of an ex-alcoholic, swearing nun. I also thought the two male actors were very good in their roles. The teenage addict was very convincing and the I thought the priest accurately portrayed the conflict within his character. I was disappointed to read the negative review in the Chronicle. The only thing that was a problem was that I could not hear all of the dialogue and we were sitting near the stage.
Written on Mar 24 2012Unfortunately, this heavily over emotional production forces the audience to accept several depths of unbelievable and distracting characters. A nun that has suffered significantly enough to ask the church for comfort, shows no sign of the compassion she was seeking and the willingness to share her joy with others, including a troubled youth, brilliantly performed, that was distracted by a crowd pleasing nude scene and a disruptive relationship with her superior priest. The play held my attention in the first act, but wondered off to almost boredom in the second act the final scenes left the audience giving polite applause, but a standing ovation out of wishes the play was better written.
Written on Mar 23 2012Fabulous performance by Kathleen Turner & cast. Dark and emotionally gnawing, this play will have you pondering faith and redemption. Kathleen turner plays a recovering alcoholic nun with a dark secret and the addict she is charged with counseling.
Written on Mar 23 2012As dark as the subject matter was, the performance of Kathleen Turner was amazing.
I am so glad she is back. She is awesome. Seats were great. Loved the experience. thanks

Description
Two-time Golden Globe® winner, Academy Award® & Tony Award® nominee Kathleen Turner triumphantly returns to San Francisco in the most critically-acclaimed performance of her career. A favorite among San Francisco theatre-goers, Turner has previously delighted audiences in such productions as Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf?, The Graduate and Cat on a Hot Tin Roof. And now, Turner brings her most compelling performance to the Curran Theatre for one week only.
When Sister Jamison Connolly (Turner) agrees to sponsor a 19-year-old drug user in an effort to help him combat his addiction, her own faith is ultimately tested. Struggling between the knowledge she possesses as a rehabilitation counselor and a woman of religious conviction, she begins to question her belief in miracles and whether people can find the courage to change. High explores the universal themes of truth, forgiveness, redemption and human fallibility.
