    I just had the pleasure of hearing this hysterical play on the Theatrical Shenanigans Podcast. Of all the ways to go, Martston Moore is the unluckiest of the unlucky. CHRISTOPHER PLUMRIDGE's dark comedy will delight audiences. And God? She is just adorable.

    Despite having recommended this piece before, as a reader, I felt it needed another recommendation after I had the great privilege of producing it for Theatrical Shenanigans. Chris has a gift for creating wonderfully unique scenarios and this play not only offers that but a hilarious story told by Marston Moore as to how he got to the pearly gates. While it could be done with a simple set it offers fabulous roles to be performed and a wonderfully funny story to tell.
