The Bible In 60

What if God got fed up with humanity… and decided to defend Himself on a podcast? The Bible (In 60) is a fast, fearless comedy that retells the biggest stories of the Bible through the lens of modern pop culture, sketch comedy, and laugh-out-loud satire. From Adam and Eve and Noah’s Ark to Moses, Joseph, and the birth of Jesus, every familiar story gets a wildly inventive twist, complete with crime shows, sitcoms, reality TV spoofs, cruise directors, morning talk shows, and plenty of irreverent humor. Whether you’re a lifelong Bible scholar or someone whose religious education came from holiday pageants and Sunday school, you’ll discover these timeless stories in a way you’ve never seen before.

Written with enormous flexibility in mind, The Bible (In 60) can be performed by casts both large and small, making it an outstanding choice for schools and community theatres looking for a crowd-pleasing ensemble comedy. Beneath the rapid-fire jokes and contemporary references is a surprisingly heartfelt reminder that humanity has always been beautifully flawed—and that hope, grace, and second chances never go out of style. Smart, energetic, and endlessly entertaining, this is a celebration of the world’s most influential book… told at the speed of a binge-worthy comedy series.
