Crime, Punishment

1. Grateful to God
2. Grateful to all that gets me through a day
3. Grateful for a good play like Crime and Punishment
4. Grateful that I have a good life, not like that of the people in Crime and Punishment
5. Grateful that I have a family that helped and can help me and that we can help each other

Prepare to be enthralled by a new, award-winning adaptation of this great Russian novel. Dostoevsky’s masterpiece has been transformed into a gripping 90-minute thriller, a psychological journey into the mind of a brilliant but desperate young man whose struggle against poverty drives him to the ultimate crime of passion.

adapted by Marilyn Campbell & Curt Columbus
directed by Anders Cato

New York stage and Emmy-nominated actor Paul Anthony Stewart stars as Raskolnikov in a gripping 90-minute adaptation of Dostoevsky's CRIME AND PUNISHMENT.

In one scene Raskolnikov puts his head into a basin of water. This was supposed to be a baptismal. I did not put this together until I read about it in a review afterward.
