    We read this engaging play as part of our reading series at the Media Arts Council. A very moving, poignant play, balanced with heartfelt humor. Mannix creates characters that we think we know in worlds we think we know and turns them around and makes us see what we did not expect. Well done.

    An earnest and beautiful work that handles human connection so sensitively while also being absurd and weird and funny. Mannix has this signature frank style that makes something beautifully bizarre when mixed with a figure like Jesus. Their gentle touch makes every character achingly beautiful and sympathetic. The ideas in All-of-the-above Jesus are grandiose but the characters and raw and honest, people chewed up by an ancient and often rigid system of interpretation and faith.

    There is so much here! I love watching Casey and Mark (and also Jesus and John the Baptist) wrestle with thoughts and feelings and about life, God, and each other. This play deals with escaping from a toxic religious upbringing, but it also deals with relationships formed when you're in the process of becoming who you'll be, and how hard they are to shake, even when they don't - and never will - give you what you need.

    Love lives in the moments that we share with one another. Love GROWS in absence. All-of-the-above Jesus illustrates a beautiful tale of absence defined relationships and how we can grow so far apart from one another yet still feel the pull when a name is mentioned. I would absolutely love to see this piece staged.
