Description

Soft Tread Enterprises presents
The Gospel According to Paul: The Second Coming

A soufflé might not rise twice, but this hit comedy will!

Exploring the former PM’s landmark political achievements and personal obsessions, The Gospel According to Paul takes the light on the hill and shines it on a man who grew up in the Labor Party at the knee of Jack Lang, approached economics as an artform, and demanded we confront the wrongs of our past. This production captures Keating’s eviscerating Question Time wit and wraps it up in a Zegna suit.

With fresh takes on Keating’s recent media moments and zeitgeist zingers, no scumbag is safe in this show, not even our humble narrator.

★★★★★ - (an) hilariously funny, astute, inspiring show. - Limelight Magazine

★★★★★ - a masterclass in biographical theatre. Biggins’ superb acting alone carries the play but his sparkling and provocative script, channelling the protagonist’s characteristic acerbic wit, elevates the performance to another level. - ArtsHub

★★★★½ - A rare treat. - Stagenoise

★★★★½ - Biggins’ finest work - Sydney Morning Herald
