Julia Sweeney (God Said, "Ha!") vertoont de eerste 15 minuten van haar 2006 solo show Letting Go of God. Als op een dag twee jonge Mormoonse zendelingen bij haar aanbellen, geeft dat de aanzet tot een zoektocht waarin ze haar eigen geloof geheel opnieuw overweegt.

Julia Sweeney is an actor and writer who does comedic solo shows that tackle deep issues: cancer, family, faith. Her next book is "If It's Not One Thing, It's Your Mother," on parenting and being parented. She performs regularly with Jill Sobule, telling stories alongside Jill's songs, in their "Jill & Julia Show." Full bio »
