Justin Bartha & Cast Of PERMISSION PLAY Attend Opening Night Of HAND TO GOD

The stars came out for the opening of HAND TO GOD tonight!

Recent Off-Broadway hit HAND TO GOD transfers to the Great White Way with an opening set for tonight and a brand new photo of some of the starry attendees, including playwright Robert Askins and Justin Bartha of Askins's concurrent production PERMISSION PLAY among them, arrived in style and a new photo is now available to view.

The official description of HAND TO GOD is as follows: "After a smash downtown run that earned rave reviews and a Critics' Pick from The New York Times, Time Out New York, and New York Magazine, this new American Play comes to Broadway. The hilarious and provocative Hand to God centers on shy, inquisitive student Jason, who finds an outlet for his burgeoning creativity at the Christian Puppet Ministry in the devoutly religious, relatively quiet small town of Cypress, Texas. Jason's complicated relationships with the town pastor, the school bully, the girl next door and-most especially-his mother are thrown into further upheaval when Jason's hand puppet, Tyrone, takes on a shocking and dangerously irreverent personality all its own. Hand to God explores the startlingly fragile nature of faith, morality, and the ties that bind us."
