"Grace" Explores Faith & Destiny

With nothing more than a little start-up cash and a lot of faith, Steve and Sarah pick up from their Minnesota home to start a new life in sunny Florida, opening a chain of evangelically themed motels to spread the good Word while reaping some divine financial benefits. Meanwhile, their new neighbor Sam is in an existential quandary of his own: recently widowed and badly injured, he's faithless, bitter and hardly in the mood for new friends, sent by God or otherwise. As their lives become entwined, and their destinies made clear, all three will come to question their own beliefs and fears. Craig Wright's "Grace" can be enjoyed at Chicago's Athenaeum Theatre Studio Two.
