Declared “flat-out hilarious” by the New York Times and “Sesame Street meets The Exorcist” by the New Yorker, Hand to God explores the startlingly fragile nature of faith, morality, and the ties that bind us. After the death of his father, meek Jason finds an outlet for his anxiety at the Christian Puppet Ministry, in the devoutly religious, quiet, small town of Cypress, TX. Jason’s complicated relationship with the town pastor, the school bully, the girl next door, and - most especially – his mother, are thrown into upheaval when Jason’s puppet, Tyrone, takes on a shocking and dangerously irreverent personality all its own. This lighting-paced comedy is sure to keep the audience laughing, gasping, and surprised at every turn.
