Letting Go of God [B+]

This one woman show is 40% theatre and 60% philosophy. But, nonetheless, it is good theatreā€¦ and good philosophy, too. Julia Sweeney recites the entertaining tale of how a couple of Mormon missionaries provided the catalyst for her 3 year investigation into the nature of God. And, how this journey took a good little Catholic girl and led her to some inescapable conclusions about God.

She entertains us with humor (and occasional pathos) while she taunts us with facts and challenges us to discover where (and possibly if) those facts fit into our own lives.

It only gets a B+ because I thought it dragged, ever so slightly, in a few spots; and more so because the theatre was quite uncomfortable (peculiar chairs and an almost flat floor).
