Bible Study for heathens
by Yeaxlanda Kay, directed by Joey Rizzolo
Bible Study for Heathens is an original, one-woman show written and performed by (according to the NY Times) "America's Poet," Yeauxlanda Kay, chronicling her journey through ten world religions by means of ritual, tradition, games, and re-enactments. Often funny, sometimes, sad, and always smart, Bible Study is an honest and revelatory inquiry about the search for faith and divinity.

“A funny and politically pointed jab at the sexism, homophobia, and material indulgences of ten major religions.”
“...beautifully moving, making a point that transcends religion. Regardless of your own personal spirituality, Bible Study for Heathens will change how you see the need for religion. ”
Produced by the New York Neo-Futurists
