    Saw a new play at the Penguin Rep Theatre, located in Stony Point, NY - Rockland County, this afternoon, called "The Savannah Disputation". It was, I am sure, patterned on JW's knocking on doors and their views on the Catholic Church. A lot of the dialogue was exactly what I used to preach, although, at one point they pointedly say, oh no, this is not JW's, JW's is the Watchtower.

    Many of the plays that start here eventually make it to Broadway.

    This plays thru 6/8. Any JW who knocked/knocks on doors should appreciate this play, and its humor and its irony. Go see it.

    Just had a quick read, it is about evangelical protestants, of which JW's are one of many such groups.

    Looks good.

    Thanks xxx

    p.s. kinda jealous that I don't live in NY, would love to enjoy so much culture.

    That sounds like an interesting play. But it looks like it played in an off-Broadway theater in 2009.

    I would love to see this. Looks like it made it's run in my neck of the woods several years ago with not much promise of another run anytime soon.
