Christ Almighty: A Comedy of Biblical Proportions
Event description
Meet Jesus - a biblical millennial frittering away his thirties on his parents’ couch. It isn’t until God turns up and dishes out his destiny that he decides to pull his finger out.
With some fresh superpowers, Jesus heads for Jerusalem and teams up with twelve pseudo-revolutionary students and a sex worker with a heart of gold. Together, they face off against scheming priests and ruthless Romans to save the people from what they never knew they had to fear… their sins.
It’s gonna take more than a miracle!
Bursting with catchy songs, irreverent jokes and cute life lessons, Christ Almighty: A Comedy of Biblical Proportions is a bright night of the soul that’ll have you rolling in the isles!
Christ Almighty debuted at Sydney's Seymour Centre in September 2023, playing to great houses and glowing reviews.
Critics from Eastside FM said it was "a brilliant performance" and "had the audience in stitches".
Fourth Wall Reviews gave it "★★★★" and called it "Very very funny".
This hilarious new musical returns for three weeks this June at Flight Path Theatre, directed by Miriam Rihani (Lane Cove Theatre Company, Willoughby Theatre Company)
