The Fifth Gospel. 'Why me? Was my soul especially wicked that I should incur a greater curse? Should I wish for a cure? Do I want a miracle? Do I believe in them?' With these anguished questions, a young disabled pilgrim travelling to Lourdes confronts her inner torments about the 'miracle' which might make her 'whole' and thus 'good'. Her guide is a Victorian magic lanternist who has strayed into the 20th century to ask some uncomfortable questions about the nature of miracles and how the Christian church has treated disability. Written and performed by Nabil Shaban with Tina Leslie. Director Nigel Evans
Editor Jane Drabble (R)
