Move over, Jesus, Santa, and Scrooge, and make way for the latest holiday icon: L. Ron Hubbard, founder of the Church of Scientology. In Kyle Jarrow's sly spoof--directed for A Red Orchid Theatre by Lance Baker and Steve Wilson--a cast of ten child actors in white choir robes perform sketches, songs, and dances illustrating how Hubbard traveled the world in search of enlightenment before realizing that he could provide same--for a price. The show also dramatizes Scientology's doctrine that humanity has extraterrestrial origins, and Hubbard's run-ins with the government. The young performers' earnest innocence is funnier than any adult's irony could ever be. Chaz Allen, a member of Second City's youth ensemble, is both charismatic and a little creepy as Hubbard. --Albert Williams
