Two intertwined mysteries of death, the afterlife, faith and forgiveness unfold from one coast to the other. Seemingly random events -- a train wreck in the Northeast corridor and a desperate expedition to find meaning in an incomprehensible crime in Oregon -- cast oblique light on one another, illuminating both. The Mystery Plays is a contemporary American journey of intrigue and longing, tragedy and serendipity, which takes you to New Haven's most intimate professional theatre space, the New Theater, for an evening you'll never forget.
