Armed with catchy melodies, divine moves and gobs of hair product, Altar Boyz is a hilarious, holy-inspiring musical comedy about five small-town boys – Matthew, Mark, Luke, Juan and Abraham – trying to save the world one screaming fan at a time. Presented as a concert in real-time, Altar Boyz sweetly satirizes the phenomenon of boy bands, the popularity of Christian-themed music, and excess product placement in contemporary American culture. The group’s amusingly pious pop act features slick dance moves, heavenly harmonies, and laugh-out-loud lyrics such as “Girl You Make Me Wanna Wait” and “Jesus Called Me on My Cell Phone.”
