In Hand to God, the provocative Jolene and the foul-mouthed Tyrone indulge in the raunchiest display of puppet lovin' since AVENUE Q's Princeton and Kate Monster's first date. But now they're taking it to the streets, giving the topless painted ladies of Times Square some healthy competition.

Remember, it's perfectly legal for a woman to go out in New York City with her buttons uncovered.

The hilarious and provocative Hand to God centers on shy, inquisitive student Jason, who finds an outlet for his burgeoning creativity at the Christian Puppet Ministry in the devoutly religious, relatively quiet small town of Cypress, Texas. Jason's complicated relationships with the town pastor, the school bully, the girl next door and-most especially-his mother are thrown into further upheaval when Jason's hand puppet Tyrone-once soft-spoken-takes on a shocking and dangerously irreverent personality all its own. As Tyrone's influence over Jason steadily grows, Hand to God explores the startlingly fragile nature of faith, morality, and the ties that bind us.
