What I liked

The tone of this play is low key and conversational for the most part, it’s a charming piece of theater but it also provides some interesting conversation. In the end, this show offers up plenty of food for thought in a clever manner that makes a few points about faith and hope along the way. It does so without being pushy or judgmental – which is a fine achievement in light of the subject matter.

What I didn't like

At one point, I had some issues hearing cast members. I know some people may feel like having to choose a path to follow would mean they are missing a portion of the chow, this did not bother me and I found it part of the fun.

My overall impression

A chance to hang with The Almighty Himself? Definitely an intriguing premise. Part comedy, part immersive piece, part philosophical discussion, this play slyly charms the audience into pondering philosophical points but never feeling like they are being lectured or preached to – it’s a slick achievement.
Mildly immersive, audience members can choose a couple of different interactions to have. The show unfolds with a casual ease and the audience I attended with seemed completely on board.
