Exploring what our purpose is in life/what we're put in this world to do, can be a weighty challenge for any writer, but Jovanovich writes about this with such joy, buoyancy, lightness, and humor. Jacqueline's faith and optimism in humanity---and the system of democracy---is heartening when it's easier to despair in the current political moment we live in on Earth. The relationship between gospel writer Matthew and Jacqueline in the library, as well as the love story between Ur and Jerah, are the heart & soul of the play.

Jovanovich has beautifully crafted this picture of Heaven that is wholly original yet well researched. This play is full of action, political intrigue, romance and lots of humor. It's a play about a big idea but thanks to these fully formed characters and their well written dialogue its an intimate piece that will impact hearts.

In the playwright’s own words, “this is not your grandma’s heaven.” Daughter of God presents audiences with a heaven more akin to our own world than one might imagine. It’s filled with broken hierarchical systems, punny cocktails, and a holy daughter kept secret from humanity. Jovanovich writes a heaven that is having to face the consequences of its decisions and, with a strong female lead at the center, must come to terms with the long held belief that God can do no wrong.
