FEATURED REVIEWS FOR An Act of God
Review: ‘An Act of God’ Is Back, With Sean Hayes
8 / 10
Technically speaking, Mr. Hayes is not portraying God. In his boundless mystery, God has chosen to come before us in the guise of Mr. Hayes. 'For lo, I have endowed him with a winning, likable personality and know of a certainty that your apprehension of my depthless profundities will by aided by his offbeat charm,' as God-in-the-person-of-Mr.-Hayes says. God later adds, 'He has no idea he's here.' The Almighty is not wrong about Mr. Hayes's appeal. (How could an all-knowing being be wrong?) Just as Mr. Parsons made for an endearingly cuddly deity, so does Mr. Hayes. He almost looks like a grown-up cherub - albeit one who's been on the Atkins Diet - and he channels the same fresh-faced boyishness and impish zest that made the character Jack a constantscene-stealer on 'Will and Grace.'
'An Act of God': The Second Coming, With Sean Hayes
8 / 10
Hayes, who kept us in stitches as flighty pal Jack McFarland on NBC's 'Will & Grace,' may not be 'infinity' years old,' as the script -- based on a Twitter feed by former 'Daily Show' honcho David Javerbaum -- allows. But he isn't the young kid we remember from a TV sitcom, either. A touch of gray has crept into Hayes' hair. Forehead lines are visible when he furrows his brow. I'd normally stay clear of comment on a performer's physical traits, but there's a gravitas evident that's a help, here. Y'know. If you're gonna play God and all. (Hayes previously earned hallelujahs on Broadway for 'Promises, Promises,' in 2010.)
