This darkly humorous one act play is a riff on Charles Willeford’s “masterpiece” (as it was called by The Washington Post), THE BLACK MASS OF BROTHER SPRINGER. It re-imagines the ordainment of Sam Springer — a drifter novelist — as a pastor of the Church of God’s Flock in Jacksonville, FL.

“I had a hunch that madness was a predominant theme and normal condition for Americans living in the second half of the century” Charles Willeford
“Willeford’s experience of his life led him to a certain attitude toward the world and his place in it, and this attitude, ironic without meanness, comic but deeply caring, informed every book he ever wrote, from his two volumes of autobiography through all the unnoticed novels.” Donald Westlake
