The Almighty will arrive a little later than originally planned at that most holy of places, Broadway's Studio 54. The Jim Parsons-led new comedy
An Act of God will now begin previews on May 7 instead of the previously announced May 5. Directed by Joe Mantello, the stage adaptation of The Last Testament: A Memoir By God, will still officially open on May 28.
The Creator Himself has written the Play, which has been transcribed by Emmy-winning The Daily Show head writer and executive producer David Javerbaum. God (through His press agent) has billed the show as such: “A 90-minute conversation in which I will reveal the mysteries of the Bible and answer some of the greatest existential questions that plague mankind.” In an early statement, He said, “This Play will help clear up the fallacy that I’m old fashioned…and instead reveal the true Me: up-to-date and holier-than-you.”
The cast will also include Christopher Fitzgerald and Tim Kazurinsky as angels. Although the show is playing at Roundabout's Studio 54, it is not a Roundabout production. This is the Word of the Lord.
