Neil Simon comedy

IT'S ON. The LTS play this year `God's Favourite' is playing on at Museum theatre since Friday. The final show will start at 7 p.m. today.

The one and half hour long Neil Simon comedy is directed by Loyola's good old favourite Michael Muthu, or simply Mike. Actually, Mike's involvement in itself can be called a part of the LTS tradition over the years.

Yohan Lamoury plays Joe Benjamin, `God's Favourite' - the adaptation of the Biblical Job. The tall Jeetu Jackson plays the lively Sidney Lipton, the messenger from God with the message that God wants to test Joe's faith and hence wants him to renounce God.

What follows is a roller-coaster of laughs, with a serious undercurrent of religion and faith. The students however insist that the play has nothing to do with morals or any sort of preaching.

Remember, Arjun who played Faheem Moosa's room-mate in last year's LTS play, `Star Spangled Girl'. He's in this one too. Don't miss Arjun's cameo performance as David, the forever drunk son, the non- believer.
