Sierra Madre Playhouse presents Late Night Catechism a hit interactive comedy, on Friday, October 14, 2016 at 8:00 p.m. The play is written by Vicki Quade and Maripat Donovan and presented by Entertainment Events, Inc.
Late Night Catechism is an uproarious piece of theatre that takes audience members back- sometimes nostalgically, sometimes fearfully to the children they once were, The irrepressible Sister teaches an adult cathecism to a roomful of “students” (the audience). Over the course of the play, Sister goes from benevolent instructor, rewarding the “students” for correct answers with glow-in-the-dark rosaries and laminated saint cards, to authoritative drill sergeant. These abrupt mood swings are bound to strike a resonant chord with everyone who survived the ups and downs of going to school with an omniscient authoritarian at the helm.
“Late Night Catechism speaks to an audience much broader than the membership of any one church….Hilarious, well-written and inspired.”—The New York Times
“The show appeals to Catholics and non-Catholics alike since Sister clearly explains religious refernces in lighthearted ways while maintaining a serious tone that isn’t too preachy and far from being saccharine.”—The Catholic Register
You have just six performances to find out about the joy and the humor that audiences all over the U.S. and Canada have discovered. Don’t miss Late Night Cathecism.
