Saint Luke Productions presents Faustina: Messenger of Divine Mercy, a powerful live multimedia drama.

Riveting. That’s the overriding reaction of audience who experience Faustina. Actress Maria Vargo is captivating as Saint Faustina, the Polish mystic who was pivotal in creating the world-wide devotion to Christ’s Divine Mercy. Through her life and the play, Saint Faustina learns the meaning of the words, “Jesus, I trust in You.”

Vargo also plays the Modern Woman, who reflects on her sins, sorrows and sufferings with heart-wrenching honesty in a parallel modern story within the show. This contemporary element offers a compelling personal connection with today’s issues, and brilliantly captures the message that no matter what a person has done in their life, God’s infinite mercy is within reach.

Faustina: Messenger of Divine Mercy is an inspiring dramatic portrayal not to be missed. The production runs ninety minutes, and is recommended for ages 13 and up.

Exciting News for A Happening IV: Leviathan

Cloudgaze and Eggtooth Productions are thrilled to announce that we have received a generous grant from the Markham-Nathan Fund for Social Justice to support our 2024 Immersive Arts Festival, “A Happening IV: Leviathan.”

This festival will transform the Shea Theater into an exploration of theme, hosting installations, music, theatrical performances, and movement pieces, featuring the collective contributions of over 30 local artists. Audiences will experience otherworldly environments and narratives inspired by folklore, fairy tales, horror motifs, American literature, and the mythos of the Old Testament, all of which delve into the central question guiding the festival: "What does it mean to encounter something greater than yourself and to be consumed by it?" Through this theme, we explore how a community reemerges and imagines itself after destruction and transformation.

With the support of the Markham-Nathan Fund, we are excited to create an event that complicates perspectives and fosters meaningful dialogue. We are grateful for this partnership and for the work of the Markham-Nathan Fund for Social Justice.

Thanks to the Mass Cultural Council for their vital support this year.We'd also like to thank the Community Foundation of Western Massachusetts for their support in the form of a Flexible Funding grant. We couldn't do this work without you!
