It was directed by Wilde, with Blue acting as a version of herself. Blue starred alone in the 45 minute play detailing her complicated relationship to Christianity and Jesus. It featured a mixture of monologues as well as dialogues with unseen characters that Blue narrated for context. The array of different formats never felt jarring or confusing. Blue had an expressive, funny, and subtly emotional style of narration that helped to fill in any gaps that could have been caused by a lack of characters.
Blue did just that. Her performance was high energy, she made use of her body and the small stage by constantly moving around it, fully occupying it with her physical and emotional presence. She was able to make fun of Christianity by laughing along with it. The barbs still felt affectionate and understanding.
Sometimes plays featuring this kind of subject matter can come across as aggressively mocking or mean spirited, as though the writer s have unresolved anger towards what they are writing about. Blue took the opportunity to engage with the audience and improvise at several points.
Courtesy Romy Rinke. Christianity Made Me a Slut did not have that tone to it. The play felt evenly paced, its sequence logical despite the frequent jumps in time periods. Whatever issues the writers may have had with Christianity in their youth came across as resolved and funnily so!
Blue was unafraid to engage the audience seated in the front row, and seemed to deviate from her script at time to improvise based on their reactions. There was never any confusion about the sequence of events, though the play jumped back and forth throughout several time periods in her life, from her teenage years at a prayer group to her misadventures in Bali at some kind of sexual rave scenario, leading her to a self-conscious visit to the clinic.
