An Altar Boy talks to God
Author(s):
Christopher Durang
Robert, a young man, talks in a friendly way about his days as an altar boy. He then recalls when his nephew got AIDS early in the epidemic, and how fundamentalists claimed it was God's punishment. Robert decides to go to heaven and ask God about this. Once there, God seems mean and ornery indeed, and professes to give AIDS to homosexuals, hemophiliacs and Haitians in a bizarrely unfocused rage. Leaving heaven, Robert feels that whom he met wasn't God, but an imposter. Adapted from the "AIDS Speech" in LAUGHING WILD, and re-written to be performed by 2 actors, out of context of that play. In volume entitled NAOMI IN THE LIVING ROOM AND OTHER SHORT PLAYS.
