Dan Lauria

Bruce Davison, Gary Cole, Dan Lauria, Wendie Mallick, Hamish Linklater, and James Handy will star in Michael Murphy's Sin, A Cardinal Deposed, to play Thursday night performances at the Hayworth Theatre in Los Angeles, February 26-April 2. Paul Mazursky will direct.

The docudrama centers on lawyer Orson Krieger as he relentlessly pursues answers from Cardinal Bernard Law, the Archbishop of Boston, for his failure to protect the victims of sexual abuse at the hands of priests in his archdiocese. The entire text of the play was taken from two hearings and one trial, and all the characters are real.

Future performances will feature a revolving ensemble that includes Frances Fisher, Richard Kind, Joe Spano, Charles Shaugnessy, Nicholas Brendon, Paul Ben-Victor, and more.
