Additional Info
Sensitive play about a widow, her two sons, and the orphaned daughter of a friend whom she takes into her home. One son works in the vineyard, yet longs to travel and see the world. The other son, born blind, stitches shoes but longs to work in his father’s vineyard. Both fall in love with the orphaned girl, who has brought life and joy into their home. When Jesus comes to the village and restores the blind brother’s sight, both sons exult in the opportunity to realize their ambitions, only to discover a greater good demanded of those who follow Christ. A deeply moving play told with affection and humor, offering outstanding roles for each performer.
