 Think you’ve got problems? Meet Joseph Melvin Benjamin.

A good Joe—loving, devoted family man, devout, successful— a model human. God is crazy about Joe and has lavishly blessed him with riches beyond imagination. But all of that is about to change.

Joe would lose the shirt off his back to have his first-born return to faith and, as the object of a high-stakes wager between Heaven and Hell, he discovers he’ll have to do that and a whole lot more! 1^st produced on Broadway in 1974, Simon’s comic take on the biblical book of Job will have you laughing in the aisles!
