PRODUCTION
"Deliriously funny! It's Jon Stewart funny plus Stephen Colbert funny." - New York Times
Directed by Dylan Brainard
In this sinfully witty and critically acclaimed new play, the Almighty and His devoted Angels answer some of the deepest questions that have plagued mankind since Creation. He's returned to set the record straight - and He's not holding back! A unique theatre swirl of satirical riffs on Biblical passages, jokey anecdotes, and comic pronouncements.
