“Altar Boyz” is a foot-stomping, rafter-raising, musical comedy about a fictitious Christian boy-band on the last night of their national “Raise the Praise” tour. The Boyz are five all-singing, all-dancing heartthrobs from Ohio: Matthew, Mark, Luke, Juan and Abraham.

With their tight harmonies and spectacular choreography, the Altar Boyz entertain. As they perform their signature hits such as “Rhythm In Me,” “The Calling,” and “I Believe,” the Boyz question their loyalty to each other and ask whether or not faith is really holding them together.

They finally deliver a message of unity, that “there is no star as bright as its constellation, no harmony in a single voice.”
