Speaking Ring's new production of playwright Jim Leonard, Jr.'s depression era drama, The Diviner's which closes out the talented ensembles' 7th season has the ability to transport the audience to a much simpler place and time, where spirituality is central to how people conduct their lives. The story, which centers on the relationship of a disillusioned preacher and a mentally challenged boy, each trying to find redemption in very different ways, borrows many of its themes from the 1960's British novel and film "Whistle Down The Wind", however, not nearly as well crafted.
