Late Nite Catechism

Late Nite Catechism is a hilarious and surprising piece of theater that takes audience members back – sometimes nostalgically, sometimes fearfully – to the children they once were.

Late Nite Catechism
Theatre on the Square

by Vicki Quade and Maripat Donovan.

The irrepressible Sister teaches an adult catechism class to a roomful of “students”  – the audience – and, 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.

Catechism classes are never as much fun – or as hilarious – as when they are led by Sister.
This international hit plays at Theatre on the Square through January 24.

Showtimes are Fridays and Saturdays @8pm
Sundays @5pm
