It's the mid-80s, and the whole world is on fire - literally. Aspiring writer Shep, currently tending bar in a little out of the way town, is resigned to his fate. A mysterious stranger arrives in town, offering Shep the opportunity to survive the apocalypse - IF he'll write a new Holy Book - including all the good parts and leaving out all the bad parts from all of the sacred texts from around the world. The stranger has also decided that the school's phys-ed teacher, Virginia, should be the editor. Other colorful characters from the town join them and allow us to ask the question "what would I do?'
Presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals, on behalf of Samuel French
