Nothing Can Take You from the Hand of God is a one woman show written and featuring Jen Tullock (known for her work on television’s Perry Mason and Severance).  The play which is loosely based on her life follows a popular essayist, known for her biting condemnations of modern Christianity, who releases a book detailing her upbringing as a gay kid in the evangelical south.  She is soon confronted by the subject of one of her stories, the woman she fell in love with on a Christian mission trip to Poland eighteen years earlier, who claims the stories are false.  We, the audience, are then left the dilemma of how much of the trauma that she is sharing from the book that she is sharing is actual truth and how much is simply false memory trying to fill in the gaps in her past.  A central theme in the play is the effect of trauma on memory – can you – or should you believe everything coming out of the victim’s mouth.  Does trauma and pain create “false memories”?
