From Tony-Nominated author Lucas Hnath, called "one of the brightest new voices of his generation" by The New York Times, comes the hottest new American play in recent memory, The Christians. Pastor Paul has spent nearly 20 years successfully growing his church from a tiny storefront to a glitzy megachurch. But today he will give a sermon that's about to shake the foundation of everything he's built - and creates a divide among his constituents. The Christians is a big-little play about faith in America that is both evenhanded and unbiased, and will spark conversation and stir your soul, no matter what you believe in.
