    Damien ~ A one-man play written by Aldyth Morris

    Wednesday, February 14th, 2007

    Based on the life and death of Father Damien DeVouster, priest to the exiles of Hawai’i.
    Some said he was a hero and a martyr. Others said he was coarse, hot-tempered, and drunk with pride. Who was this fiery and passionate man? And why did he fight his family, government, and church to serve a group of dying outcasts? Featuring theatre professor Bryan Boyd, Father Damien’s story is told in a compelling and intimate form of theatre – the one-man play.
