This fictional account follows a spark loosed in a suburb of Pittsburgh to downtown and the river (probably the Allegheny). Led by a hyperwhite Jesus who joins the fire fanning until the heat is loosed on him, the cast and this performance implore tough questions stand to be asked, like, Why do people tell racist jokes? What are some of the many works of laughter? And what are your options, as listener, for dousing the flame
