The comedy, also directed by Israely, will officially open Dec. 3 at the California theater. Orgasms explores the mistakes made by God during the creation of man and woman. As a release states "For instance, God forgot to connect the man's penis to the heart and to the brain. Of course, these were mistakes that God fixed when he created Eve, the woman; therefore, making the woman the new and improved version — some think the better model."
