Late Nite Catechism Play

In Laguna, the nun makes sense (as do the economics of the single-actor show). Maripat Donovan, who has performed all three comically blessed incarnations of her "Late Nite Catechism" solo franchise at the Laguna Playhouse, will premiere the fourth there next spring. " 'Til Death Do Us Part: Late Nite Catechism 3" (April 4 through May 3) will replace the previously announced premiere of "All the More to Love," a new musical the playhouse commissioned. Donovan's return as Sister, written with Marc Silva, will find her expounding on the Roman Catholic sacraments of marriage and last rites.
