Bigger Than Jesus

"An exciting piece of multimedia theater with a challenging point of view, Bigger Than Jesus could have a big future... a fast-paced, thought-provoking ride."

"Mesmerizing! Few can match Miller's impeccable comic delivery and joyous energy."
-Globe and Mail
  • BIGGER THAN JESUS


    WYRD Productions, with Necessary Angel Theatre Company, present the international hit BiggerThan Jesus, the latest solo show starring Rick Miller of MacHomer fame.

    Co-created with Daniel Brooks, one of Canada's top directors, Bigger Than Jesus features Rick Miller in a sinfully funny and poignant multi-media Mass that questions the mysteries of life and the historical and modern viewpoints on Christianity.  Weaving together the Catholic liturgy, the gospels, and some good old-fashioned bible-thumpin', Bigger Than Jesus is one of most unique theatrical experiences you will ever see, regardless of your religious background.    
     
    With its careful juggling of reverence and irreverence, Bigger Than Jesus has played equally well to both the avant-garde (Munich's SpielART festival) and commercial markets (Montreal's Just for Laughs festival).  The production has now toured to rave reviews across Canada and Europe, and has just made its American debut at Cal Performances in Berkeley.   For more info, please visit the official website  www.biggerthanj.com
