Event Details
GOD HAS RETURNED! AND HE HAS NOTES.
This holiday season, the Almighty is taking center stage at Murphys Creek Theatre, and after a few thousand years of watching humanity stumble through existence, he’s got a few things he’d like to clear up!
From Emmy Award-winning writer David Javerbaum, former head writer and executive producer of The Daily Show with Jon Stewart, comes AN ACT OF GOD, the hit Broadway comedy that’s part stand-up routine, part theological roast, and entirely NOT your typical holiday show!
Forget the thunderbolts, burning bushes, and solemn sermons. God is trading the heavens for the spotlight in a hilarious 90-minute show that feels more like a comedy club act than a Sunday service. With help from two devoted angels, he’s here to answer humanity’s biggest questions, revisit a few biblical misunderstandings, and unveil a brand-new set of commandments.
And nothing is sacred! From biblical stories and religious traditions to humanity’s many flaws and contradictions, An Act of God takes a bold look at our complicated relationship with the Almighty. God may have created humanity in his image, but after a few thousand years together, both sides have some explaining to do!
Following Broadway runs starring Jim Parsons (The Big Bang Theory) and Sean Hayes (Will & Grace), God now arrives in Murphys in the form of local favorite Sean Lewis!
“The funniest 90 minutes on Broadway!” — The New York Times
If you like your comedy sharp, your satire playfully provocative, and your holiday entertainment a little less holy, this might just be the divine intervention you’ve been waiting for!
