Media Contact: Jennifer Spencer, 520.884.8210 x 6202
"SISTER'S BACK AND THAT IS VERY, VERY GOOD!" DECLARE THE CRITICS ABOUT THE
LATE NITE CATECHISM SEQUEL, LATE NITE CATECHISM 2
Sometimes we feel guilty because we are guilty
The long awaited sequel to the comedy hit, Late Nite Catechism will be
presented by Arizona Theatre Company at The Hotel Arizona, 181 W. Broadway
Blvd in downtown Tucson. Sister appears May 16 - 27, 2007. Tickets are $35
($25 for ATC subscribers) and are available by calling ATC's box office at
(520) 622-2823. For group sales discounts, please call (520) 884-8210 x
8204. Student discounts also available.
The Los Angeles Times declares Late Nite Catechism 2 "funnier than the
original!" This time around Sister tackles sin and is the undisputed
conqueror! Armed with banners, filmstrips, mimeographed handouts, historical
facts and hysterical insights, she conducts her class into convulsions of
laughter. Picking up where she left off in the original, Sister begins with
an affectionate look at women's religious orders which leads to her own
'confession' about the goal of every nun - to get herself into heaven first
and then bring along as many of the faithful as possible, thereby securing
her own wings and possibly the salvation of countless others.
Now, in Late Nite Catechism 2, it's up to Sister to save the souls of those
assembled - AKA the audience! Beginning with an overview of heaven and hell
as a Catholic version of Chutes and Ladders, she is soon offering her own
suggestions for celebrities who might end up sharing digs with the devil, as
well as a list of new sins for the new millennium. (Needless to say bobble
head dolls of the holy family is right near the top).
Maripat Donovan's Late Nite Catechism 2 is 'blessed' with all the wit,
wisdom and wackiness that made the original an international hit. "Who knew
damnation could be so much fun!?!" (LA Times). Join the 'flock'; see Late
Nite Catechism 2.
