    UTTERLY DISGUSTING!!!!

    This is truly an abombination and a disgrace!!!! All of the people responsible for this atrocity will meet their maker soon! This is beyond my comprehension of horrible! We are truly in the last days....you think you can make a mockery of our savior? You will pay the price!!!

    Wrong on every level!

    Seriously who would watch this or even bother supporting it? Stop shoving gay rights in everyone's faces and leave my God out of it. This is blasphemy, that's all it is. Everyone is so careful not to offend any other religion, so why does it make it ok to always attack Christianity?

    This is a documentary, NOT the actual play.

    I have watched this documentary last May 2019 and read the reviews. I find it funny that they are reviewing the play and not this documentary.

    I will not review this, as others review this documentary with religious implications. but how they presented this documentary about their struggles to stage this play.

    It's very mediocre, lacking in zest/conviction in presenting it. Some interviewees shows emotions which is superficial and not convincing enough that their play is good.

    This documentary itself sucks BIG TIME.

    Genesis 19-- the rest of the story

    It is true that God said he'd spare 50 righteous people IF there were that many. Apparently Abraham knew better because he talked God down to 10 people. Whoever has ACTUALLY read the story would know that Sodom and Gomorrah WAS destroyed because only four nearly escaped the same distribution of the towns. I say nearly because Lot's wife was one of the four, however God said leave and don't look back. She looked back, and since God is true to his word he destroyed her as well by turning her info a pillar of salt. God does love and he shows that to those who truly believe in him. This movie is an abomination to God, it represents something he hates!! True Christians would know that. He's not just a thing to believe in, but he's to be obeyed. Read Romans chapter 1. People, you must realize that the Bible is not written based on verse by vesre, but by stories of real life events and words to live by. Not pick and choose what verse works for you today!! Pray about things before you put your trust in it. I'm morn for those who don't see through the devil's games. Just believing there is a God will NOT get you into heaven. God is very precise with details, look at the exact instructions of the ark, the Tabernacle, the clothes the high priest wore. Don't be fooled into thinking salvation isn't just as precise!! Seek the truth!! And to answer your question, no I do not think I'm holier than everyone, but I do live every moment hoping I'm not leaving God out. And I strive to keep the Holy Ghost within my heart and cry out to God when I know it's not there. I love you and pray for you...

    Sorry to break it to you...

    ...but God is not mocked. He is not blind to blasphemy, nor does He take it lightly. Unless the makers of this mockery see and acknowledge the true love of God and character of Christ and turn away from their attempts to lead others astray, there can be only one final destiny for them. In the meantime, I hope and pray they will have a change of heart and decide not to release this film, both for their own sakes and for the world at large. The time of the end, as depicted in the book of Revelation, is not far off and I feel sorry for anyone who chooses to remain on the wrong side.
