Topic: Godfellas


  
  Godfellas | Welcome
Godfellas was born out of an awareness that we often read the Bible through a lens.
Godfellas is committed to sifting tradition though the filter of scripture to try and distinguish the original Christ-ianity of the apostles from the later religious mutations which would be better described as Church-ianity.
The priority of Godfellas is to attempt to recover the truth about who the Jesus of the Bible is and to understand his relationship to Israel?s God, Yahweh.

But even with the hardening of Dolores Park, Godfellas finds the Mime Troupe in superior form, certainly as compared to recent shows that felt haphazard in script and staging, and not quite ready for the traditional July 4 opening that launches a summer tour.
When a character in Godfellas blames the loss of the shield on "crack-smoking lesbian abortion doctors who teach our children evolution," it's not far afield from the good reverends' actual comments.
In the case of the religious leaders shown in Godfellas, the "protective shield" is a bogus gimmick used to promote an agenda that, as a first step, wants to amend the Constitution to establish a national day of prayer.

  Arts & Entertainment- But Now I See   (Site not responding. Last check: )
This being San Francisco and the Mime Troupe, the light in question is revealed to be about as spiritual as a bottle of Jack Daniel's and as holy as a donut.
Dressed in a pimpin' electric-blue suit, Godfellas' own hallelujah preacher, the Rev. De Love, is heaven-bent on spreading the word of God (or rather Go-oh-oh-d, in Michael Gene Sullivan's trembling Martin Luther King baritone) to every corner of the land.
Or, rather, rid the country once and for all of the tiresome separation of church and "dat uddah thing" — the s-word, to these God-squadders, is strictly taboo.

 Review: 'GodFellas'   (Site not responding. Last check: )
He's working, as it turns out, for the Syndicate, a group of cigar-chomping, dese-dem-dose Mafioso-style religious leaders, the "godfellas" of the title: a rabbi (Christian Cagigal), a bishop (Lisa Hori-Garcia), and an imam (the latter character a no-show, detained at the airport!).
The heroic Angela has her dark night of the soul, and is temporarily thrown off course by a seductive and attentive media, but ultimately regains her idealism, concluding that "we can't use [the right wing's] tactics to beat them," and "democracy is not about faith, it's about thinking."
It's as yet unknown how the irreverent GodFellas will be received on tour elsewhere in California, but the troupe's clever, comic critique of the government's born-again outlook is more than welcome in San Francisco.

Nothing is sacred in the Mime troupe's "GodFellas," which besides being brazenly funny is also topical.

 A 'hit nun,' nerdy librarian and televangelists collide in Mime Troupe's smart 'GodFellas'
The Mime Troupe and a few thousand of its friends gathered in Dolores Park on Tuesday to celebrate a glorious Fourth with one of the company's sharpest, funniest and most fundamentally patriotic, original musical comedies in years.
"GodFellas," the 47-year-old troupe's annual free summer show in the parks, is penetratingly pertinent political satire, expertly performed by six remarkably versatile and tuneful actors and staged with comic snap by "director/wrangler" Ed Holmes.
The words and spirit (literally) of Paine, and of other founding fathers (particularly Jefferson), invigorate "GodFellas," making it a timely, entertaining reaffirmation of the secular principles on which our democracy depends.

 The San Francisco Mime Troupe wages holy war in giddy 'Godfellas' | Oakland Tribune | Find Articles at BNET.com
The 47th annual Mime Troupe show, "Godfellas," opened on the Fourth of July under sunny skies in San Francisco's jam-packed Dolores Park.
For the uninitiated, the Mime Troupe is a politically minded collective that spends the summer touring Bay Area parks with a free show that has nothing to do with white-faced mimes pretending they're trapped in a box or walking against a strong wind.
But "Godfellas" is pointed political theater, and the effort to separate church and state has rarely been this much fun.
