LUMINARIUM is a dramatic retelling of the conversion of King Drtad,
the first of the Armenian kings to embrace the Christian faith. The
action of the play is set in 284 A.D. in the Palace of King Drtad
where Gregory has laid aside his noble pedigree to become a servant
in the house of the King. The conflict rises when the King calls
upon Gregory to make sacrifice to the goddess Anahid. Gregory
declines the offer, which kindles the King's anger and lands him in
the King's dungeon. Gregory endures torture with grace and
patience, believing that his suffering will lead to the King's
conversion. When the King discovers that Gregory is the son of the
assassin that killed the King's father, he rejects Gregory's faith
claims and sentences him to die in the dungeon without food or
water, releasing a curse upon the kingdom and hastening the play's
tumultuous conclusion--the King's conversion and Gregory's
miraculous survival.
