E.J. Gold's Creation Story Verbatim is a humorous play depicting a conversation between God and the Archangel Gabriel.

The play explores God's frustrations with humanity's self-destructive tendencies and Gabriel's attempts to understand God's actions. The dialogue is characterized by witty banter, absurd situations, and frequent digressions. Key themes include the nature of creation, the limitations of divine intervention, and the unpredictable behavior of humans.

The play's humor stems from the contrast between the vastness of creation and the mundane concerns of its creator.
