Have you ever prayed that Jesus would come back as a stand-up comedian? Well, your prayers have been answered. The second coming is no longer coming. It’s here and it’s called STAND-UP JESUS!
Heaven help us?
Hell, yeah!
Come bear witness to a truth that hurts and a truth that’s funny with STAND-UP JESUS! Thy kingdom come, thy will be done; and it will be done with divine satire. In Robert Dubac’s latest solo show, our lord and savior is back and this time he’s no longer a carpenter. He’s a stand-up comedian hell-bent on preaching what God created on the 8th day. Comedy.
Who better to battle modern-day hypocrisy than STAND-UP JESUS! Shining the light of truth on false prophets, duplicitous politicians and immoral sheeple, J.C.’s razor-sharp satire has been intelligently designed to redeem sinners of all faiths. So let he who is without sin cast the first heckle!
Yes! STAND-UP JESUS is irreverent, sacrilegious and, above all, hysterical! Atheists and believers both praise STAND-UP JESUS as, “A miracle! It succeeds at being heaven and hell, enlightening and offensive; all at the same time!”
“Razor-sharp, whip-smart, irresistible satire!” PBS Chicago
Robert Dubac (author, actor) belongs to a rare breed of humorists who make comedy smart and tragedy funny. Eschewing drama in the pursuit of humor he deftly combines stand-up with theater, pulling our emotional strings with intelligence and wit. In other words, you get more truth and less dick jokes. He constantly tours the world with all three of his solo shows, sometimes all at once, as a self-contained one-man repertory company.
Admission includes post-show wine and wafers (the vanilla and chocolate kind) reception with the artist
