The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, and Count Leo Tolstoy: Discord

About This Show

From Scott Carter, the executive producer of HBO’s Real Time With Bill Maher, comes The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, and Count Leo Tolstoy: Discord. This new play features three of history’s most famous men, all of whom wrote their own version of the gospels, debating everything from religion to literature to marriage. Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens, and Leo Tolstoy are trapped in a limbo wherein each believes his path to salvation depends on convincing the other two that they are wrong. Kimberly Senior, the acclaimed director of Disgraced and Chris Gethard’s Career Suicide, directs this battle of biblical proportions.
