Synopsis
Four clergymen seek to make sense of their mission while being torn in all directions by the Church of England. After a critically lauded debut in 1990 at London s National Theatre, Racing Demon went on to earn universal acclaim. More than 20 years later, David Hare s bold and moving revelations on gay ordination and the doctrine of the priesthood ring more resoundingly than ever.
An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast recording, starring Jared Harris, Lesley Nichol, Rosie Fellner, Paul Fox, Jason Hughes, Martin Jarvis, Christopher Neame, Alan Shearman, Simon Templeman, Jane Wall, and Matthew Wolf.
Directed by Rosalind Ayres. Recorded before an audience by L.A. Theatre Works.
