"The Sky Over Nineveh" is a breathlessly-paced study of faith and mercy in a pressure-cooker of violence, tradition, and time. Inspired by the Book of Jonah from the Old Testament, the play follows the radical transformation of a Biblical-age city when a mysterious Prophet (Jonah) arrives and declares that God will destroy the city in forty days. As the dawn of the apocalyptic day approaches, every citizen of Nineveh must face a very personal test of faith. Meanwhile, the city is crumbling into chaos and the Prophet is slowly edging into megalomania. Neither a tract nor a straight adaptation, "The Sky Over Nineveh" is a suspenseful, funny, and sometimes shocking exploration of the weakness and the strength that come from belief.
