Cast and Performance Photos by Jeremy Whittington: HAND TO GOD by Robert Askins, Public Theatre, San Antonio, April 13 - May 6, 2018

This ridiculously raunchy, irreverent, and funny show is bound to leave you sore from laughing. When Jason’s puppet takes on a shocking personality all its own, we begin to contemplate the startlingly fragile nature of faith, morality, and the ties that bind us.

* Contains themes and content not suitable for all audience members

“Directors don’t often get to do to work plays that employ as many familiar cultural memes as Hand To God. The list of characters includes puppets, but these are not the cute cuddly Sesame Street lovies with whom we are all familiar. These come out of the workshop of someone like Wes Craven, not Jim Henson. At the same time, we are dealing with a fairly traditional coming-of-age story in which a young man who has recently lost his father, is trying desperately to figure out who he has become and how to meet his mother’s needs while striving to forge his own identity.  The comfortably familiar setting of the Sunday School room that most of us frequented as children, also reinforces our sense of comfort and familiarity. But this play, with its irreverent bad taste reminiscent of The Book of Mormon, achieves one of Bertolt Brecht’s stated goals: it makes the familiar strange, and, hopefully, extremely funny.”
