NHP alum Jayne Deely’s play I never asked for a gofundme receives its world premiere production at Actor’s Express in Atlanta, GA. WHEN THE LORD GIVETH, A GOFUNDME MULTIPLIETH. Millie and her partner Avery have landed back in Millie’s hometown of Mobile, Alabama, while Avery recovers from gender-affirming top surgery. Things spiral out of control when a nosy, evangelical family friend mistakes Avery’s top surgery to be a battle with breast cancer and makes a GoFundMe for the couple (all in the name of the good Lord, of course). Suddenly, Avery and Millie find themselves at the center of small-town gossip, flooded with donations they never asked for. As they wrestle with the decision to accept this money, they must decide if being unapologetically themselves comes with a price tag.
