"An intense, chilling take on life behind bars, Jesus Hopped the “A” Train strikes a fine balance of “intellectual vigor and sophistication on the one hand and so much anguished passion on the other.” (The New York Times). A riveting work from the recipient of the 2006 P.E.N. Literary Award for Drama, which cites Guirgis as “creating a theatre that feels vital, political, intimate and undeniably of the moment.”
An L.A. Theatre Works full-cast performance featuring Marco Greco, Janel Moloney, Joe Quintero, Charlie Robinson and David Zayas."

Hilarious, raunchy, and ultimately very touching, Stephen Adly Guirgis is a new voice to be celebrated.
