Sin

Actors Theatre of Houston presents Wendy MacLeod’s Sin, a devilishly funny contemporary morality play set in San Francisco on the eve of the 1989 earthquake. Helicopter traffic reporter Avery Bly tries to keep herself above life’s messiness, without much success. Her soon-to-be-ex-husband is a charming alcoholic, her roommate is a glutton, she’s trapped in a helicopter with an envious co-worker, and her blind dates are disasters. It takes the death of her brother to teach her that pride is the deadliest of all sins, and it takes an Act of God to bring her down to earth. George Brock directs this Houston premiere.
