Patrick Healy at The New York Times quipped “Jim Parsons is God – and not just to fans of his character, Sheldon Cooper” on the CBS comedy hit The Big Bang Theory.
“No, Mr. Parsons is actually going to play the Almighty on Broadway beginning May 5 in the new comedy An Act of God by David Javerbaum, a former head writer and executive producer of The Daily Show With Jon Stewart, the play’s producer announced on Thursday.
The 90-minute production is based on Mr. Javerbaum’s 2011 book The Last Testament: A Memoir By God, a swirl of satirical riffs on Biblical passages, jokey anecdotes and comic pronouncements.
Ron Charles at The Washington Post described it this way: “The alpha and the omega of Javerbaum’s comedy are deadpan silliness and startlingly graphic sexual gags, which no fig leaf could dress up for a family newspaper.”

God will not be mocked!
Id not only be certain to steer clear of the actual performances but the neighborhood that theaters in for the next few months.
Maybe this sodomite can portray Allah at some point in the future...
Perfect. A flaming girlie-man cast as God. Disgusting.
They need to change the name to “Act of Allah”
Oh my Goodness, he is an actor. Do you expect him to be a church going baptist?
I will say one thing, Jim Parsons IMO is a very gifted actor. The parts he chooses to play, well that’s another thing. I’m sure they are most likely colored by his personal political persuasion.
My boyfriend and I go to New York for a couple of days each year to take in some Broadway shows. I think I can safely cross this one off my must-see list.
Never heard of him till now.
I’ve never watched Big Bang Theory, and the reason is that I can barely stand watching this fruit in the 5 second promos for the show, much less watching an entire show.
Oh yeah... the one that thought it was important for us to know that he has unnatural relations with other men...that Big Bang Theory actor.
Dead To Me!
I wonder if the coward would play moohamid.
Bing Bang Theory show has everything!
Fornication, a sodomite actor, immature men in mid-30’s acting like kids, Adultery, exploiting of idiosyncrasies, etc. It was funny in the beginning. Not any more.
But I have a funny feeling in my gut. Someone already said it...."God will not be mocked".
The whole universe would have to be a dense state if it turns out in droves for it.
