The earth moves, the clouds part, and the gates of heaven open in this new lo-fi musical that sees the gospel according to the Church Of Garth decree that the entire congregation wear butt plugs at all times. Built for comfort they are not, but when corks are popped and asses unfrozen, those not doing god’s bidding fly off into the ether like a burst balloon. Bearing witness to this are teenage BFFs Luke and Connor, who embark on a mission to kill off the sinners en route to filling the holes in their own lives. 

The lord moves in mysterious ways in this scurrilous romp, written and performed by Jake Brasch and Nadja Leonhard-Hooper aka the American Sing-Song company. As they lay bare their fantastical narrative from behind a keyboard and enough Foley equipment to soundtrack War Of The Worlds with, yes, gay abandon. All hail the second coming. But go easy on the lube.
