The story explores the comedic and primitive nature of what happens when parents defend their children.

Tickets are $10 for adults and $6 for students with ID. To order tickets go to www.wsuartstickets.com or visit the Performing Arts Center Box Office.

Sounds like an ignorant, insensitive, and poorly chosen title. Hate speech. Try Muhammed prophet of carnage in its place if you are to small minded to see how prejudice and hate filled the title is. Hypocrits!!!!
Hello. Just to clarify, the play title is a figure of speech, similar to “god of war” or “god of wonder.” For more information and a synopsis of the play visit: http://wsu.mn/I1VkEL.
