JEEZUS!
Mayflower Studios
Falling for Jesus is a mortal sin, but damn it feels good!
In 1990s Peru, a brutal military coup ushers in a decade of dictatorship under the rule of Alberto Fujimori. In the home of General José and his devoted wife María, altar boy Jesús prepares diligently for his first communion. But as the biggest day of his adolescent life approaches, the hot man on the cross makes him feel something…unholy.
Catholic guilt collides with unrepentant queerness in this sinful, heart-pounding mix of live music, dark humour, and Latin heat. If Bo Burnham, Bad Bunny, and Bertolt Brecht had a baby, this would be it.
JEEZUS! is the smash hit debut from award-winning migrant-led company Alpaqa. Bulging with new songs, the show returns after taking the Edinburgh Fringe by storm – this time hotter, sweatier, and even more unhinged.
This is the second coming – let’s burn in hell!
