The Claire Tow Theatre - Lincoln Center, NYC
Directed by Annie Tippe
“An imaginative new play with humor, insight, and a stellar ensemble…Wendy Yang’s costume design, from baggy cargo pants with a chained wallet to a patchwork skirt and Doc Maartens, is an instant rewind to the time when millennials reigned.”
- MAYA PHILLIPS, NY TIMES
"A very funny and moving new play!"
- VINSON CUNNINGHAM, THE NEW YORKER
Abut the show:
A new play by Julia May Jonas (author of the acclaimed novel Vladimir), YOUR OWN PERSONAL EXEGESIS is a bracingly funny and slyly devastating collision of coming-of-age eroticism and religious ecstasy. In the sanctuary, hallways and rec rooms of a liberal parish, Brian angles for power, Addie attempts transfiguration, and Beatrice battles with obscurity. Meanwhile Kat, the youth pastor, can’t stop gazing into the troubled eyes of her congregant Chris.
