Which version are you doing?

I actually finished doing the 2012 version a few weeks ago. For the Good Samaritan parable, for the judge, we had him refer to Johnny Manziel, but since where I did the show was close to Cleveland, it might not get as big a laugh as it did my production.

In the Prodigal Son, we managed to work a reference to Cher in. After the line "turned the whole of his share into cash," I said, "Now that's a lot of share!" Another cast member said, "Did somebody say Cher?" Then, we shouted "Ho!" and imitated her famous hair flip.
