Jesus, queen of heaven

Scotland - Jesus, Queen of Heaven is new play stirring intense controversy in Glasgow. It portrays Jesus as a transsexual woman. A woman who was formerly a man wrote the play and stars in the lead and only role. Christian evangelicals were joined by Roman Catholics in picketing the Tron Theatre where the play opened this week. This is a sequel for the playwright who also authored, God's New Frock, a partly autobiographical production about growing up as a male and trying to suppress the impulse to become a woman. 

The author/actor has expressed disappointment at the public's reaction and says she had imagined the son of God alive in the present day as a transsexual woman, and is attempting to present how "she" would relate the parables under this transgendered identity.
