🎧 QUESTA Act 2 | by Victor Bumbalo

Chelsea, 1991. Weeks after the alley.

Paul thought he could stop. He can't. He's following the mother now. Crying in front of her at a coffee shop while she comforts him, not knowing the man at her table is the man who killed her son.

The witness who lied for him is watching Paul now, learning his name, standing across the street from his door.

And in a confessional at St. Anthony's, the mother breaks down on the priest she's been sleeping with and tells him God sent her a stranger as a punishment. She doesn't know the stranger has already punished her once.

QUESTA is a devastating, lyrical, morally serious story about grief, faith, and forgiveness. Monster's Ball meets Manchester by the Sea.

Featuring John Milhiser (Saturday Night Live), Oscar nominee Bruce Davison (Longtime Companion, X-Men), Maury Morgan (This Is Us, Richard Jewell), Anthony Holiday, Ashley Platz (Yellowstone), Bruce Nozick (Weeds, All the Way), Matt Bradford Sullivan (New Amsterdam, Juilliard), Darin Toonder (Paradise), Harriet Sansom Harris (Frasier, Phantom Thread), Rob Fitzgerald (American Crime Story), Kiel Kennedy (Robot Chicken, Superstore), Brendan Bradley (Resident Evil Village, Timeless), with Meeghan Holaway narrating.
