AN ACT OF GOD

BY DAVID JAVERBAUM

November 25 – December 17, 2022
SUNDAY MATINÉE Dec. 4 and 11
DIRECTOR Scott Ecker
ASL December 10 – Audio Description December 11

In An Act of God, the deepest questions troubling humankind since creation will be answered at last, when we get a visit from the universe’s greatest comedian: God. After millennia of human meddling, mythology, and misinterpretation, she wants to clarify a few things. This rewrite of the Ten Commandments is no mere spoof of Bible stories, but an opportunity to ask some challenging theological questions. In typical Theatre B fashion, An Act of God invites the audience to ponder important life lessons, even while being tickled giddy.

God – Pam Strait*

Michael – Aimee Klein

Gabriel – Ayden Smith

Tickets on sale November 7.

Jim Fingal is a fresh-out-of-Harvard fact checker for a prominent but sinking New York magazine. John D’Agata is a talented writer with a transcendent essay about the suicide of a teenage boy—an essay that could save the magazine from collapse. When Jim is assigned to fact-check D’Agata’s essay, the two come head to head in a comedic yet gripping battle over facts versus truth.
