Four female panelists come together to debate whether women should disregard and leave religion behind, or continue to practice their spiritual practices. The play cracks open intersectionality to analyze the ways in which organized religion supports, or breaks down women's freedoms and rights. In conversations of religion and feminism, is it possible to live in a world where we as humans can respect each other's beliefs rather than try to win some sort of religious war?

Julie, a young Jamaican Canadian screenwriter, is passionately working on an adaptation of one of the most beloved American novels of all time, To Kill a Mockingbird, telling the story from the perspective of the Finch family’s Black maid, Calpurnia. But within the safe confines of her wealthy father’s home, and besides all the encouragement from their Filipina housekeeper Precy, Julie struggles with writer’s block and numerous distractions as her family prepares for an important dinner party. When her brother challenges her, saying she’s appropriating a culture she doesn’t belong to, she goes to dramatic lengths to prove her point, only to find she has much to learn. -- Publisher.
