About the Play :

In just one day, Job lost everything. What could anyone do about a
calamity like that? Well, there is one solution. Just like Noah in
Artisan’s hit THE ARK and Joseph in JOSEPH AND THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR
DREAM COAT, what Job needed was his very own musical extravaganza!
That’s exactly what the late Rudy Eastman and his long-time musical
collaborator, Joe Rogers, thought. So, they wrote a great gospel
musical, THE BOOK OF JOB, for Marian and Rudy Eastman’s Jubilee
Theatre in downtown Fort Worth. It brought down the house then and in
its two revivals. But now, for the very first time ever outside of
Jubilee Theatre, THE BOOK OF JOB is coming to Artisan. Directed by
Sheran Goodspeed-Keyton, one of the stars of Jubilee’s previous
productions and many of the other sell-out Jubilee musicals; it has
Lloyd Harvey, our recent “Captain Hook,” as Job and a great cast
of singers and movers. You’ll be wagging your fingers and stomping and
hollering right along with job’s judgmental neighbors as they belt out
“What You Done” (must have been pretty bad to deserve this)!!!
This glorious, infectious, colorful, soulful emotional entertaining
production is good for the whole family.
