Live Performance Opportunity

15 Jun 2020 by Melissa Freeman

Hello, theatre lovers! This show was directed by former KHS student Jake Blakeman. They are following social distancing guidelines.

From the Irving Arts Center:
With the health and safety of performers and patrons of primary importance, the MainStage Irving-Las Colinas Board of Directors has decided that, in light of COVID-19 restrictions and required social distancing, to replace the scheduled production of the large-scale musical Disaster! with David Javerbaum’s An Act of God.

This full-length, three-person comedy is a side-splittingly funny play that creates a space for The Almighty (with the help of two devoted angels) to answer the deepest questions that have plagued mankind since Creation. Audiences will be on the receiving end of divine one-liners as The Almighty delivers a new and improved set of Commandments and answers questions from his socially-distant spectators.
*Contains adult language, mature themes and irreverent humor. It is recommended for ages 16 and up.
Cast
Sherry Etzel as God
Eric Criner as Gabriel
Alex Swanson as Michael
