NEW YORK (AP) — The Tony Award-nominated play “Hand to God” — featuring a satanic hand puppet — will close on Broadway in January but will be resurrected a month later — in London.
Producer Kevin McCollum said Wednesday the show will end its New York run on Jan. 3 and begin a new chapter Feb. 5 at the Vaudeville Theatre in the West End under original director Moritz von Stuelpnagel. The cast will be announced later.
The bracing comedy, which earned five Tony nods, is by Robert Askins. Set in a current-day Texas church basement, it’s got three teens and two adults who over the course of a few days struggle with society’s expectations. It mixes violence, swearing, church hypocrisy, and plenty of sex — of both human and puppet varieties.
