FATIMA is a drama about the apparitions of an angel and the Virgin Mary to three shepherd children near a small town in Portugal during World War I. In early 1917, an angel visits 10-year-old Lucia. The angel tells her to pray for peace. Then, the Virgin Mary appears to Lucia and her two younger cousins. Mary asks the children to return monthly to the same place for the next six months. Word of the apparitions spreads. They generate controversy with the children’s families, the town, their church, and with the secular, Anti-Christian government.
