As the actors debate the sins of Shakespeare's characters, they question the fundamental tenets of Catholic doctrine, as well as the Church's stance on sexuality, womanhood, and purity. A controversial draft of the play attracts the attention of the nuns and soon the production is in jeopardy. As the girls grapple with faith, love, and adolescence, they find themselves facing off against an oppressive institution. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eCast Size: \u003c\/b\u003e 7 Females \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"\u003ci\u003eThe Virtuous Fall\u003c\/i\u003e... is admirable in having likeable characters take unlikeable positions, as it is for presenting the sexual experience of some of the young women not as a plot point but as a given.\"-\u003ci\u003eThinking Theatre NYC\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"Femia's characters exude wit and tenderness as they navigate the highs and lows of adolescence.\"-\u003ci\u003eTheatre is Easy\u003c\/i\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\"You don't have to be female, or Catholic, to relate to the adolescents in this sharp, funny new comedy.\"-\u003ci\u003eBlog Critics\u003c\/i\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 106\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.22 x 8.5 x 5.5 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e August 04, 2025\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53246717034803,"sku":"9781630921460","price":24.53,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0300\/5595\/6612\/files\/xwgOYaPuQN9781630921460.webp?v=1776291853","url":"https:\/\/www.vysn.com\/en-ca\/products\/the-virtuous-fall-of-the-girls-from-our-lady-of-sorrows-paperback","provider":"VYSN","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
