Actor Leonardo Defilippis captures the poetry and passion of Saint Augustine of Hippo (AD 354-430) in a performance that is accessible and deeply moving. The play is astonishingly relevant for our own times. Augustine struggled with promiscuity, fathered a child out-of-wedlock and dabbled in a “new age” style cult. You’ll be amazed by his relentless pursuit of Truth and encouraged by the prayerful perseverance of his faithful mother, Saint Monica.
This audio drama is an adaptation of our live theater production, The Confessions of Saint Augustine.
