This dramatic story coupled with exceptional acting and a lavish set presents this gripping thriller in a whole new light. It promises to be a compelling night of theatre.
A grieving mother comes to Frank Galvin with an open-and-shut (but nevertheless seemingly unwinnable) medical malpractice case. Up against the might of the medical establishment and the local Catholic church he refuses a six-figure out of court settlement, believing that medical negligence has destroyed the life of a young mother and her family. Smelling a cover up, he takes the case, the hospital, the church, Boston’s finest gold-plated law firm and, in many ways, his own reputation to court. And the verdict? You’ll have to come along to find out! |
