According to press notes, "An idealistic young Pope is framed for a heinous crime and banished from the Vatican. The people, blinded by the media frenzy, allow a tyrannical archbishop to seize power. This new Pope tightens his iron fist. The people are disheartened and in despair: the world is crying out for a hero! Can young Pope reclaim his glory and be the hero the world needs?" The performance schedule is as follows: Aug. 21 at 12 PM, Aug. 21 at 7 PM, Aug. 23 at 4:15 PM, Aug. 25 at 3: 15 PM and Aug. 28 at 5:15 PM.
