Middle Georgia State College Theatre presents Doubt:A Parable from Oct. 30 through Nov. 3 in the Arts Complex Theatre on the Macon Campus.
Performances are scheduled for 7:30 p.m. Wednesday, Oct. 30, through Saturday, Nov. 2, and 2:30 p.m. Sunday, Nov. 3. General admission is $8; $5 for senior citizens and students enrolled at any college other than Middle Georgia State. Admission is free to Middle Georgia State students, faculty and staff with ID.

In Doubt, a nun in a Bronx Catholic school in 1964 suspects a popular priest of inappropriate behavior with a student. Armed with nothing more than a resolute belief in her suspicion and a few circumstantial details, she instigates a relentless campaign to remove the priest, enlisting the help of a subordinate nun and the child's tormented mother. The simple, yet ever-shifting plot leaves all four characters and the audience wondering whether they were justified in their thoughts, motives and actions.

McElheney earned his MFA in Theatrical Design and Technology from the University of Southern Mississippi in 1997.
