Accusations, mistaken identities, and romances run wild in this traditional, laugh-out-loud farce. Two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing have been secretly making wine to keep the convent’s doors open, but Paul and Sally, reporters and former fiancées, are hot on their trail. They go undercover as a nun and priest, but their presence, combined with the addition of a new nun, spurs paranoia throughout the convent that spies have been sent from Rome to shut them down.
The cast includes Hannah Weston as Sister Philamena, Maggie Wachtl at Sister Augusta, Eli Mowry as George, Debra Lord Cooke as Mother Superior, Tim Croce as Paul, Lindsey Hammes as Sally, Sharon Hood as Sister Mary Catherine, and Paul Herard as Father Chenille.
Tickets cost $28-$30,
