Be Gay, For God's Sake
How do you fix Earthly Matters?
God is hosting a seminar in Inner Mongolia. You’re invited.
Shasha returns to China from the UK and comes out as gay, her Christian mother, Song, doesn’t take it well. Thank God—divine intervention is here to save the day. God forces Song to relive a buried past—an intense “friendship” with her daughter’s schoolteacher, Yi, that might have been more than it seemed.
Things spiral. Fast. And God? Not as all-powerful as They think.
“Be Gay, For God’s Sake” by Oh My My is a sharp, satirical, time-bending drama about queerness, family, and the pursuit of happiness across continents and generations.
Inspired by real events, the play interrogates the tension between East Asian queer experiences and a Westernised perspective. When shaped by different worlds and times, can a mother and a daughter truly understand each other?
