Part concert experience, part rock opera, part dramatic masterpiece, Taking the Jesus Pill invites you to become a part of the hottest theatrical cult sensation in recent memory. The brainchild of writer-musician Charlie Terrell and executive producer Polly Parsons, Taking the Jesus Pill is an event unlike anything you've experienced before. This is not a show you sit back and watch it is a show that you will find yourself living in and it living in you.

Taking the Jesus Pill follows the soul-seeking odyssey of beautifully innocent Tina, daughter of a slickly subversive, domineering Southern preacher and his victimized wife who continues to blindly follow her husband through his duplicitous motions. When a charismatic young rebel named "Johnny 3:16" offers Tina the possibility of a different path, Tina escapes her world of personal and evangelical hell, only to find the road to self-discovery holds many truths we can face and just as many that we can't...
