While it has been nearly 20 years since I was a Catholic school student, I have to admit that I don't quite remember it being much like St. Veronica's in Theatre UCF's production of Charles Busch's bawdy comedy THE DIVINE SISTER. Directed by UCF Associate Professor Kate Ingram, the play runs through October 3rd in the campus' Black Box Theatre. The 2010 Off-Broadway comedy lampoons Hollywood's obsession with nuns, riffing on THE SOUND OF MUSIC, THE BELLS OF ST. MARY, AGNES OF GOD, and more; Busch even mixes in his take on the recent surge in Catholic mythology fiction, a la THE DAVINCI CODE. While the humor might be something that would normally get your hand smacked with a ruler, the show does have an ultimately sweet, faith-affirming message; despite the sacreligious and sophomoric humor that, if you suffer Catholic guilt, will likely have you running for the confessional booth.
