"Some plays make you laugh, some make you think, and some manage to do both at once. Scott Carter's The Gospel According to Thomas Jefferson, Charles Dickens and Count Leo Tolstoy: Discord falls squarely into that last category, blending razor-sharp wit with big, philosophical questions that are timeless. In Theatre Artists Studio's production, the combination of Carter's intelligent script, a skilled cast, and thoughtful direction results in an evening that is as entertaining as it is illuminating." - Gil Benbrook, TalkinBroadway.com (click here to read the complete review)

Humor infuses the play – Dickens’s bluster, Jefferson’s pomposity, Tolstoy’s ascetic severity – even as it probes questions at the core of faith: What is the essence of Jesus’s teaching? Is the gospel a story of divinity, morality, social justice, or love? Whose version is correct?" - Herbert Paine, Broadway World (click here to read the complete review)
