Emmy winner Jim Parsons is back on Broadway! With the original comedy AN ACT OF GOD now in previews, Parsons and the cast recently met the press, and BroadwayWorld was on hand. Check out what the actor had to say about returning to the Great White Way, the joy of live theatre, and taking on such a high-profile role!

The new Broadway comedy An Act of God, starring Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Parsons, began performances on May 7, and officially opens on Thursday, May 28, 2015 at Studio 54 (254 West 54th Street). Joining Parsons will be two-time Tony Award nominee Christopher Fitzgerald(Finian's Rainbow, Young Frankenstein) as "Michael" & Tim Kazurinsky ("SNL", Police Academy) as "Gabriel". An Act of God is written by God, transcribed by 13-time Emmy Award winner David Javerbaum and directed by Tony Award winner Joe Mantello.

The King of the Universe is tackling His greatest challenge yet: Broadway. This spring, God takes the form of four-time Emmy and Golden Globe Award winner Jim Parsons in An Act of God, a 90-minute comedy where the Almighty and His devoted Angels answer some of the deepest questions that have plagued mankind since Creation. He's finally arrived to set the record straight... and He's not holding back!

An Act of God is based on the critically acclaimed book written by God and transcribed by David Javerbaum. Javerbaum is a 13-time Emmy Award winner for his work as a head writer and executive producer for "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart," and also curator of the Twitter account @TheTweetOfGod, which has over 1.86 million followers.
