As mentioned in a previous posting my short-short playette, "The God Call" got its first airing in a reading by a group in North Carolina. According to Sam the producer/director, it was very well received. Basically, the play focuses on a phone call made by G-d to a student studying and mumbling "oh G-d" as a kind of frustrated outlet, and G-d calling him on the phone in response. This got me thinking further as to the possibility and challenge, actually, of turning this into a proper play i.e. one or two act play. Thing is and to be candid, I'm a little nervous about creating a role where I put words in the All-Powerful-and-Mighty's mouth. I mean, what are the religious ramifications? Could I be smited as a result? Nobody wants to be smited, right? The project is still in the thinking stage now and who knows if I won't get a warning in a dream. Isn't that the way it works?
