BY DOUGLAS LACKEY

Zephyr Caulfield, John Gionis, Nick Freedson,
Matthew Foley, Andy English*, Barbara McCulloh*

Set by Jerry Mittelhauser. Lighting by Scott Cally.
Costumes by Joey Haws.

"Douglas Lackey is a philosophy professor at Baruch College, but as a side hustle he writes dialectical moral biodramas about deep thinkers like Heidegger and Wittgenstein. To clear the palate, he also sometimes dabbles in short intellectual comedies such as this one, which imagines a meeting among Matthew, Mark, Luke and John to hash out the competing truths of their gospels." --Time Out New York
