Covenant
Written by York Walker
Directed by Malkia Stampley
Chicago-area premiere.
Nothing much ever happens in a small town in Georgia— especially for someone who needs to be in the limelight. So Johnny skips town to make it in the music world. When he returns two years later, fully transformed and a rising blues star, rumors begin: is Johnny possessed with talent, or simply possessed? And after he takes his new hometown bride on the road and returns her two months later—mute and manic—sins are exposed, old secrets surface and faith is held together by the thinnest of threads.
