The following blog was originally posted on the website of a right-wing evangelical preacher.  When he was notified that Tammy Faye Messner had been consulted before the musical was written, he did not apologize or express remorse for having maligned the writers. But he did remove this blog.

The Abomination Known As The Gospel of Tammy Faye

 

The city of Cincinnati must be desperate for entertainment as Fernando Dovalina and JT Buck have composed a musical called "The Gospel of Tammy Faye" and are audtioning talent for the main role that will commence in June of this year at the Ensemble Theatre of Cincinnati. The event is being hosted by the Fringe Festival. It will feature Tammy Faye as a teen-ager, televangelist, and her modern day self.

This woman, despite her past deeds, is inflicted with a disease presently and this show is in extremely poor taste. We would hope that the citizens of Cincinnati would have better things to do with their time and money? Maybe the Cincinnati Reds will be at home that week for that would be a far better alternative.
