Art House Productions presents
A Public Private Prayer
Written & Performed by Grant Bowen
“Our Father Who Art in Heaven…we need to talk.”
Actor & storyteller Grant Bowen is proud to present the New Jersey premiere of his deeply personal one-person show A Public Private Prayer. In this humorous and thought-provoking piece, Grant is still wrestling with the question of whether or not he believes that God exists. Now he's resorting to one last tactic...talking to God Himself! Through revisiting his true stories about his religious upbringing in Alabama and the moments that made him question everything, Grant will explore his doubt, search for truth, and hopefully discover what real salvation looks like. Don’t miss the latest iteration of this compelling and heartfelt show!
"The overall presentation is so well done that I experienced a profoundly different yet similar journey in a fresh and rewarding way." - TheaterReviewsFromMySeat.com
“Bowen is incredible on stage—a truly effective actor and storyteller who fills the stage with his presence [...]. The hard material of the show would not have been as powerful in less-capable hands.” - ThinkingTheaterNYC.com
