God (a play)

A group of people in our campus, most of them theater students, prepared a play written by Woody Allen called "God." The play was comedy; it started with two philosophers talking about the existence of God and those common "philosophy topics." However, as the play progresses, the audience is brought into stage and hilarity comes from the fact that the audience are 21st century high school students and the other characters are some sort of Greek philosophers.

The play was adapted for our campus audience. The play included some references to the things we do in school and our academics. It also included direct references to the audience, which made it funny because they were references to something we knew and are used to it. Commedy is very effective when it involves something that you can relate to, and this play had a lot of those things you could relate to. I had a good laugh.

Another reason why it was a very funny play is because there were a lot of unexpected things. One of the characters was the "writer of the play" and he claimed to even have written the audience! Then another character was God, and was doing silly things. A lot of unexpected things. Very good acting too.
