Sister Mary, a nun who is
parochial in every sense of the word, educates, indoctrinates, and inculcates in
this hilariously dark comedy that could only come from the pen of the bitingly
funny Christopher Durang (Beyond Therapy, The Marriage of Bette and Boo).
Even when confronted with the lasting psychological trauma she has inflicted
upon her former students, Sister Mary is unable to bend her fervent beliefs in
the religious dogma upon which she has built her entire existence in this bold
theatrical piece that was nearly banned in several cities.
AUDITION DETAIL
The Cast:
Sister Mary (45-65) Strict old world nun.
Has sense of humor about herself but none about the Bible. Believes that what
she is doing for the children is the correct thing.
Thomas (looks around 7-9) Catholic school
child. Loves Sister Mary. Able to recite scripture on command. Obedient.
The following are the students that graduated about 10 years
ago so they should all be around 28.
Diane - Bitter woman who feels betrayed by
her religion. Blames Sister Mary for the way her life has turned out.
Phelomena - A bit on the anxious side. Has
2 children out of wedlock. Clearly a follower.
Gary - Bright, content homosexual. Not
overt. The audience should not know he is gay until he reveals it.
Aloysius - Married with children. Still
haunted by the thought of Sister Mary. Considers himself a good Catholic. Beats
his wife.
