About this Event

ABOUT



Foul Fiend Theatre Troupe is thrilled to present GODS & IDOLS: A ONE-ACT PLAY FESTIVAL.
This is our first ever festival series, and we can't wait to share these witty, irreverent, and poignant works with you.

Gods & Idols features five original dramatic works, penned by some of New York's finest emerging playwrights. These short plays each examine a distinct aspect of modern faith: what are the origins of our beliefs, what myths do we hold onto, and how does religion affect our youth, our government, and our culture?
