The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven

Join us for the US debut of the award-winning play by Jo Clifford.

“Queen” has been performed in 10 countries to both rave reviews and intense controversy.

“The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven is an absolute triumph – an electrifying burst of joy and love that strikes the heart and enriches the soul.” Australian Pride Network 

“moving and infinitely graceful” The Guardian

“thanks to the ongoing media obsession with reporting negative stories about transgender people, it may even be more relevant now than when it was first performed” The Skinny UK

“Never had I been so viscerally affected by a play to the point it altered my psychology. The Gospel According to Jesus Queen of Heaven made me euphoric, and I felt healed.” Tahney Fosdike, Arts Writer and Content Specialist

The Gospel According to Jesus, Queen of Heaven takes the concept of Christian love and applies it to those who have been historically excluded due to gender or sexuality while also asking us just how inclusive we really are as a society. The result is a transcendent take on what it means to be human, imagining the message of love, shared by a trans woman returned as Jesus, extending to embrace all those traditionally excluded because of their sexuality or gender.
