This was my first Lucas Hnath play at Actors Theater in Louisville, KY. I enjoyed his unique writing that left me leaving the auditorium with more questions than answers about belief and faith.

I will take “Doctrinal Differences” for $1000 Alex… … a phrase in referring to the resolution of a conflict (usually a debate or quarrel) in which all parties tolerate but do not accept the opposing position or positions.
