Undoubtedly parts of this play went over my head, but I'm studying it for my first ever drama module at uni so will hopefully find some enlightenment next week!

From what I did understand, On Religion was a fascinating dive into religion and science, opposing beliefs, and familial relationships which are affected by the previous two things. This was interesting and engaging, but also made me smile and laugh. The dad character was warm and just so 'Dad'ish that he was the perfect thing to balance out the seriousness of most scenes.

Extremely enjoyable.
