Altar Boyz

Altar Boyz is a musical-comedy spoof about a fictitious Christian boy-band on the last night of their national “Raise the Praise” tour. The Boyz — five ultra-talented heartthrobs from Ohio — are lead singer Matthew (the pretty-boy hunk and leader of the pack), Mark (a sensitive young man with a deep faith in Cher), Luke (a bad-boy with an “interest” in communion wine), Juan (a hot-blooded crooner with a passion for pretty girls), and Abraham (a nice Jewish boy, who’s not quite sure how he ended up here…though his mother would sure like to know). As they perform their signature hits featuring lyrics like “Girl, you make me wanna wait” and “Jesus called me on my cell phone,” soul-wrenching secrets come tumbling out — with hilarious results. The Boyz begin to question their faith in each other, and learn if fate is really holding them together — or if it’s just their extra-firm hair gel.

With their sweet harmonies, sinfully spectacular dancing and an unnerving sense of fashion, the Altar Boyz are 90 minutes of pure family fun and the winner of the 2005 Outer Critics Circle Award for Best Off-Broadway Musical.
