SYNOPSIS: 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. Wine and secrets are inevitably spilled as everyone tries to preserve the convent and reconnect with lost loves.
 
CAST:
The age ranges and genders are suggested.
  • Sister Philamena (F) – 40s to 50s. One of the three nuns who live at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing convent. She is joyful and humorous.
  • Sister Augusta (F) – 40s to 50s. One of the three nuns who live at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing convent. She is also joyful and humorous.
  • George (M) – 20s. Caretaker and gardener at the convent. George isn’t dumb but not exactly bright either.
  • Mother Superior (F) – Age range: mid-30s to mid-60s. Has been in charge of the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing for many years. Hates alcohol, especially wine. Somewhat wily.
  • Paul (M) – Age: 20s to 30s. Newspaper reporter. Co-worker and former fiancé of Sally. Paul is an orphan. He’s a good writer, but his conscience sometimes gets in the way of his reporting. Actor must be willing to wear a nun’s habit
  • Sally (F) – Age range: 20s to 30s. Award-winning newspaper reporter. Used to be engaged to Paul. Quick witted and sometimes sharp tongued.
  • Sister Mary Catherine (F) – Age: 20s. A novice nun sent to the convent to finish her training. Meek and timid.
  • Father Chenille (M) – Age range: mid-30s to mid-60s. Priest of the local parish that the convent is next to. Patient, understanding, and a little clumsy.
