| Lucia Grillo |
New York, NY (April 23, 2012) Impetus Ensemble is proud to add Lucia Grillo to the cast
of this special presentation of an ambitious new play, Vatican Falls, written
by Frank J. Avella (author of “Consent”) and set against the backdrop of the
Catholic sex abuse scandal. The staged reading will be presented May 15, 2012
at 6:45PM at the National Comedy Theatre. All proceeds from the play will
benefit SNAP (Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests).
.
On April 11, 2012, the Center for Constitutional Rights,
on behalf of SNAP, filed a supplemental complaint with more evidence and many
new developments since the September lawsuit (link).
.
Based on factual material, “VATICAN FALLS” follows
the life of one survivor who struggles with understanding how those closest to
him could damage him the deepest. The multi-genre, non-linear play probes the
conflicting feelings involved in most sexual abuse situations and dares to
confront the truth about the ever-growing scandal and the Church’s complicity
in it.
