WHAT IS IT ABOUT?
Avow centers around a gay couple who wish to be married by a young priest whom they respect very much. The pregnant sister of one of the men goes to the priest to plead their case, and the Father and unwed mother unexpectedly fall in love. Jack Hofsiss directs this new play by Bill C. Davis, best known for Mass Appeal, which also dealt with the intersection between religion and homosexuality.

Two tall, handsome, virile men, Brian (Christopher Sieber) and Tom (Scott Ferrara), stand in a rectory awaiting a few words with their Catholic priest, Father Raymond (Alan Campbell). They are both nervous. They want their priest to marry them, to let them exchange vows in front of God and church. Enter Father Raymond, a man just as tall and just as handsome as they are.
