Plot summary
Over five years a touring company carries Corpus Christi around the world. The play recasts the gospel story in 1950s Texas, with a gay Jesus at the center of it, and its writer and its audiences travel along with the actors. Wherever the production lands, voices of protest and voices of support collide, since religion is one of the central questions the LGBT community faces.
