Conversations with My Molester: A Journey of Faith

On the eve of Pope Francis’ historic visit to New York City, poet & playwright Michael Mack returns to NYC for a professional run of his “powerful” (Washington Post) and “profound” (Times Square Chronicles) one-man play Conversations with My Molester: A Journey of Faith. Mack, like many Catholic boys in the 60s, wanted to be a priest. That dream ended at age 11 when his pastor invited him to the rectory to help make “a costume.” In the decades that followed, Mack wrestled with haunting questions about sexuality and spirituality, imagining one day meeting his abuser for a conversation.
