When Celia Quinn, artistic director of the Bridgeton Repertory Theater, discovers a group of poems "written by a special hand," she springs into action to transpose these poems, which are based on the biblical characters of David and Jonathan, into a play. Casting Derrick, a well-established actor along side of a young, naïve Zach, Celia is unaware that both men are the antithesis of the picture of friendship found between their stage counterparts. Derrick is put off by Zach's faith orientation, and Zach is equally uncomfortable with Derrick's sexual orientation. Will the two men move past their differences to find brotherly love? Or will Celia force her own dramatic interpretation of the bond between the two men, as a tribute to the mysterious author of the poems?
