Wretch Like Me
Advance run of a Totally Righteous "One-Sinner-Show" Written & Performed by David Templeton, Directed by David Yen.
About his Southern California adolescence as a "raging" teenage fundamentalist Christian. Setn during the tail-end of the 70's "Jesus Movement," as the last vestiges of the Peace-and-Love Christianity were giving way to the conservative religion of the big money Evangelical wave. Heartwarming, heartbreaking, and hilarious, giving rich insight into the power of non-denominational religion to heal and hurt, often in the same movement.
