Late Nite Catechism

  • By Vicki Quade & Maripat Donovan

Nov. 4 – Dec. 17, 2023

ROSENTHAL SHELTERHOUSE THEATRE

ABOUT THE SHOW

One of the longest running shows in Chicago and U.S. theatre history, this one-nun comedy is part catechism class, part stand-up routine. A playful and compassionate send-up of Catholic culture, the audience becomes Sister’s class in this uproarious piece of interactive theatre. Sister is filling in for Father Murphy, who doesn’t want to miss his poker night, and she’s going to teach the class the way she wants. She goes on to weave stories into a hilarious tapestry that laughs at the quirks of the church while simultaneously embracing them. The Hollywood Reporter said it’s “a laugh-filled evening for all cultures, classes and religions.”


ADVISORY

Late Nite Catechism is appropriate for audiences 12 and up and contains no strong language. It does include some audience interaction and promises lots of fun.
