An Irish Priest and a Southern Evangelist travel to Africa separately, and for completely different reasons only to find themselves falling in love with the same woman amidst the chaos of a near civil war in a mining community.
Hoping to continue his mentor’s missionary work, Father Jonathan O’Shea travels to Africa, only to discover his friend and mentor has died in a city which has lost its soul.
After meeting Zacharias Solomon, a shifty evangelist traveling with his band leader Cappy, Father Jonathan is befriended by Samuel, an all knowing bartender who helps Father Jonathan find his voice in the strange new land.
Samuel leads Father Jonathan to confront his true feelings about Imani, a beautiful African woman with dreams of becoming a doctor, but if it meant she could help her people’s suffering, she would settle for being a nun.
As Father Jonathan seeks to bring Imani a doctor so she can learn new medicines, Zacharias secures her a position in a nursing program.
And both men find Imani’s Mama yet another obstacle they (and Imani) must face.
But how can any of these circumstances be resolved in a place where tribal factions are fighting for control of the city’s mines, while innocent people are caught in the middle?
Is “love” really the answer? And can anything truly be certain in a place “… where the streets have no name”…
And now, we invite you to enjoy a sneak peek into the story….
Act I, Scene IV – from “Where the Streets Have No Name”
