Review by DAVID LOVE

My overall impression

As the son of a Judaica teacher with more religious hangups than there are commandments in The Torah, I found God of Abraham to seamlessly alternate between hysterically funny, breathtakingly beautiful, surprisingly poignant, and absolutely terrifying. I intentionally stayed away from reviews and synopses, and I’m glad I did. Nothing could have prepared me for such a unique theatrical experience. The only way I could describe God of Abraham would be by trying to imagine David Lynch directing an episode of South Park.

If you could chuckle at a writing credit by YHWY, then this is the play for you. And if you can’t, well, there’s also a magic act by a gay Moses. Thou Shalt See This Play!
