Live theater, local spaces, and enough creative sparks to trip the smoke alarm.
What happens when a god runs out of believers?
He sulks.
He rants.
He argues with fleas
Marooned in a bleak room with a camp bed, a dusty lamp and the remains of his failed miracles, a shabby and increasingly powerless god is determined to prove he’s still in charge.
Unfortunately, the light won’t come on, the toast won’t appear, the roses keep turning into thistles —and somewhere out there, his last remaining believer may be slipping away.
Let There Be Thistles is Joshua Thomas’ wickedly funny, irreverent and unexpectedly moving solo comedy about belief, free will, loneliness and what happens to a god when nobody believes in him anymore.
Absurd, provocative and very funny — until suddenly it isn’t.
