STAGE TUBE: Meet London's Next Big Star - HAND TO GOD's Tyrone!

Below, check out a just-released short film, introducing Tyrone - the truth-telling sock puppet - and star of Hand to God, who is about to cause havoc inLondon's West End, following a hugely successful Broadway run. The show opens for previews at the Vaudeville Theatre on Friday 5th February, the Press Night is Monday 15th February.

Hand to God received five 2015 Tony® Award nominations including Best Play, Direction of a Play (Moritz von Stuelpnagel), Actor in a Leading Role in a Play (Steven Boyer), Actress in a Leading Role in a Play (Geneva Carr), and Actress in a Featured Role in a Play (Sarah Stiles).

Playwright Robert Askins goes for the jugular-by way of sock puppet-in his hilarious and heartbreaking new comedy Hand to God. In it, a shy teenager named Jason is surprised when his Bible School project-a puppet named Tyrone-takes on a shocking, truth-telling personality all its own, forcing everyone in its path, especially Jason's mother Margery, to confront their own demons as they search for redemption through a mix of riotous laughter and genuinely shocking twists.
