Fundraiser for two Vegas secular groups!

JesusLovesYou_Logo copy

At the end of January, 2016, we’re performing the full 2-act version of our production as part of a fundraiser for these two local groups:

  • Sunday Assembly Las Vegas (SALV)
  • Secular Student Alliance at UNLV

 

SYNOPSIS
A Jesus puppet! Mary’s first orgasm! A public stoning! Thea Deley shares her story of growing up in a conservative Christian family and how a series of epiphanies — some painful, most hilarious — led her to leave the faith.

Thea may be the only comedian ever invited to perform at an Atheists convention AND a Baptist church. Filled with game shows, sketch comedy and spoof videos, “Jesus Loves You! (But Hates Me)” is Thea’s love note to everyone who’s survived religious indoctrination with their faith in humanity intact. For mature audiences only.

TESTIMONIALS (Can I Get an AMEN?!)

“I laughed so hard I fogged up my glasses!”
—Kari Schoonhoven
Former Baptist

“Amazing, provocative, stunning and sharp. Thea’s articulation of what it means to be human and to love couldn’t have come across more clearly.”
Rev. Brian Henderson
First Baptist Church of Denver

“’Jesus Loves You! (But Hates Me)’ is intelligent, heartwarming, powerful, and above all else, hysterical. This is a show I would recommend to EVERYONE — believers and blasphemers alike!”
—Ashlee Bingham
Secular Student Alliance at Colorado Mesa University

“It is not an everyday occurrence that I go to a comedy expecting religion-bashing and instead find myself healing my own grievances against religion. Rated ‘RAD!’”
