Daniels' fifth play takes a hilarious and biting look at Hollywood and political censorship. Action movie hero Derek Johansen, along with his personal assistant, producer and screenwriter, believe that their new film concept will take them down the road to superstardom and megabucks. This Hollywood quartet, convinced that an action movie based on the Bible will break box office records, are soon faced with the dilemma of translating the Bible's words of wisdom into sound bites, freeze frames and promotional trailers.

"... blisteringly funny ... topical, political, and outrageously satisfying..."
"It's good comedy ..."
"... a raucous, over-the-top, scathingly funny sendup of Hollywood movers and how they cannibalize culture, art, icons and history for their own
gain."
"A saber-toothed satire of Hollywood hucksterism as well as the religious right..."
"... a terrific script ... We can't ask for much more from a play than to be entertained while simultaneously being given food for
thought."
