Five small-town boys from Ohio — [[Theme Naming|Matthew, Mark, Luke, Juan]] and [[Odd Name Out|Abraham]] ([[Token Minority|he's Jewish]]) — have joined forces to save the souls of America through their righteous music, with lyrics like "Girl, You Make Me Wanna Wait" and "Jesus Called Me on My Cell Phone". But will their angelic voices and spectacular dancing work its wonders in New York City?
The ninth longest-running off-Broadway musical in history, ''Altar Boyz'' is an [[Affectionate Parody]] of boy bands and Christan rock. The Boyz are giving a concert in New York, hoping to save the souls of their audience, but find themselves confronting their own demons and doubts over the course of the night.
