"The performers wear the vestments, not of priests but of
medieval bedlam idiots who are called upon by circumstance
to celebrate a Mass even though they do not know how. Moving
easily between the sublime and the ridiculous, drawing its audience
through laughter toward participation and contemplation, the work
resists being categorized as either theater or religion, becoming
both at once in an event experienced by many as transformative.
As they stand beside these grotesque characters in prayer, worshipers
begin to participate in the liturgy with new understanding."
