Regardless of my politics, I typically hang my head in disappointment when a play or musical digresses from its plot to unabashedly insert the director’s personal agenda.
But when said play or musical megaphones its message through the conduit of a lispy 9-year-old with two gay dads and a seething hatred for Donald Trump, I can’t help but crack a grin.
Alec Willis will play Jesus for the second time in his life in “The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee.”
His first time playing Jesus was in his high school’s production of “Godspell.”
