A divine, charming, crazy comedy, with everything that goes with it

Comedy based on the bestselling book of the same name by David Safier

adapted for the stage by Jan Bodinus

A guest performance by the Ensemble Theaterlust

Marie has many talents. Her greatest is choosing the wrong man. And it usually takes her a while to realize it. Marie's dream of finding true love just won't come true. Then she meets the attractive handyman Joshua – but something is not right with him. On their first date, he tells her about his ancient father, shares bread with her, and turns water into wine. Slowly, it dawns on Marie – Joshua is Jesus and he is back. Hallelujah!

When Marie realizes that she has just fallen in love with the most wrong man ever, she gets frightened and already pictures herself sizzling in the fires of hell.

Anyone who has read novels by David Safier knows what the audience can expect from this theater visit: A hopelessly romantic-idealistic comedy and a big, quirky, and blasphemous fun that plays with the thought-provoking question of what would happen to us humans and our world if Jesus walked among us again—similar to Monty Python's "Life of Brian."
