Review: An Act of God at Beck Center for the Arts
by Laura Kennelly 18 Sep '18

18 Sep '18

Mike Polk, Jr. is God? Well, that’s his designation in the Beck Center’s irreverent incarnation. Directed by William Roudebush, this regional premiere features a script by David Javerbaum. The snarky, hip vibe featured in *An Act of God* may sound familiar to stand-up comedy fans and those who love *The Daily Show with Jon Stewart*. That’s no accident; Javerbaum writes for the show. Polk is a natural with easy, authoritative delivery. Garbed in flowing white robes and striding around a tiered white-draped stage, he explained that he (“a minor regional celebrity”) had been taken over by “God” to lay out a new plan (and, as later transpired, new commandments). Polk’s funny at times, especially when he’s injecting self-deprecating remarks. One is pleasantly reminded that he is truly a regional celebrity and really locally famous, especially for his comic routine with its wonderfully apt description of the Browns’ stadium as a “factory of sadness.” It’s a tough sell though, playing God, and the script (built in part from the playwright’s Twitter feed) doesn’t make it easy.
