One could argue that most christian churches and organizations are "culty" or even proper cults. No argument necessary for the bizarre churches Uriah Wesman grew up in. With their ritual chanting, leaders choosing mates to have lots of children, and ridiculous levels of control over every aspect on one's life, yep. Cults. The very definition. But even as a kid, Uriah was brave enough to envision a life outside with love and joy and laughter. He used his sense of humor to make sense of things and became a comedian and storyteller with a one-man show that has already had 3 sold-out performances. You can see the next show at the Lyric Hyperion on Thursday, October 24. Get tickets here.
