FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:
Company One presents…
Jesus Hopped the ‘A’ Train
By Stephen Adly Guirgis
Directed By Summer L. Williams
The Boston Center for the Arts
Black Box Theatre
July 17 – August 9, 2003
"Its aggressive high-octane style is like a shot of caffeine
straight in the veins"
-The Guardian
Company One presents the Boston premiere of the off-Broadway
and Edinburgh Festival hit, Jesus Hopped the A Train. The New
York Times labeled Stephen Adly Guirgis “AMERICA’S BEST YOUNG
PLAYWRIGHT,” and exclaimed “[JESUS] HAS BEEN WRITTEN IN
FLAME.” Two prisoners incarcerated on Riker’s Island, - one a
first time offender and one a psychopathic serial killer
turned born-again Christian - search for morality and grace
within the prison gates. Freedom is juxtaposed with the
responsibility of spiritual rebirth in this cage-rattling
comic drama about faith and justice.
