Synopsis
***J. B.: A Play in Verse* is Archibald MacLeish's Pulitzer Prize and Tony Award-winning play, based on the biblical story of Job.** The story of a twentieth-century American banker and millionaire whom God commands be stripped of his family and wealth, but who refuses to turn his back on God. J.B.: A Play in Verse sparked a national conversation about the nature of God, the meaning of hope, and the role of the artist in society. "It was an inspiration to select the Biblical figure of Job as a prism in which to reflect the suffering and the injustice of our time."??-??The Atlantic
