Jesus Hopped the A Train<\/em> is a stark and sobering examination of life, death, salvation, and what it takes to be a “good” person. The play revolves around the relationship between two prisoners at Riker’s Island in Manhattan, each of whom believes himself accountable to a higher law than that of the judicial system. Angel Cruz has shot the leader of a religious cult to which he lost his best friend. Lucius Jenkins is a serial killer awaiting extradition to Florida, guilty of the deaths of at least eight people, and during his incarceration, Lucius finds God. Assigned to protective custody at Riker’s, Angel and Lucius find themselves in close company each other during their daily hour of outdoor exercise. The two struggle and clash in their mutual guilt, innocence and faith in higher powers.<\/p>\n
