SISTER’S CHRISTMAS CATECHISM – The Mystery of the Magi’s Gold by Maripat Donovan (the creator and author of Late Nite Catechism and Late Nite Catechism 2)
Sister’s Christmas Catechism arrives at the Tower Theatre on Monday, December 11th for one performance only. Performance time is 7p.m. Tickets are $25 and $35 and are available at the Tower Ticket Office at 317-0700 or on line at www.towertheatre.org.
In this latest addition to the Late Nite Catechism series, Sister employs techniques from her favorite TV show, Forensic File,s to discover the whereabouts of the Magi’s Gold. As she points out in her hilarious opening, “We know what happened to the myrrh and the frankincense – Mary used them as a sort of potpourri. They were in a barn after all. But who was the culprit who made off with the gold coins and left Mary, Joseph and the infant Jesus in the lousy stable without any chance to upgrade to a suite?”
Forensic tools in hand, Sister creates a living nativity using audience members dressed as the Holy Family, magi, shepherds, sheep, cattle…and of course, an ass. She then sets the stage for the crime by directing a local choir in songs of the season that are sure to add even more clues to her investigation. And, wonders of wonders! Flash photos will be allowed!
Sister’s Christmas Catechism, with hysterical audience interaction, musical highlights, wacky prizes, non-stop laughs and the irrepressible, irresistible Sister, is bound to become a must-see holiday tradition.
