NONIE NEWTON RILEY AS SISTER
Do you want to join a convent or enlist as a technical detective on a crime show, like on CSI, have I got an opportunity for you. Pack up your religious artifacts and your Sherlock Holmes Detection Kit and get thee over to Long Wharf Theatre’s Stage II by Sunday, December 17 for the delightful antics of the good Sister in “Sister’s Christmas Catechism: The Mystery of the Magi’s Gold.”
Think carefully before you show up for service as the nun in charge will not tolerate any clothing that is not modest, or cell phones that have not been silenced or attendance that is not punctual. Sister has rules, and Nonie Newton Riley intends to respect them all. But if you’re attentive and employ deportment, you just might win a hologram of the baby Jesus in the stable, a pencil that proclaims Jesus Loves You Snow Much or a picture
of the Pope wearing a Santa hat.
Sister will also share interesting legends about the candy cane, St. Nicholas, poinsettias, the Nativity and Our Lady of the Grilled Cheese. On a more serious note, Sister is also trying to solve a mystery: what happened to the Magi’s gold and she will go to extreme lengths to find the culprit.
By creating a Living Nativity, including Mary, an ox, an ass, a shepherd, a sheep, three Kings, Joseph and the little drummer boy, using the most original of costuming, like lamp shades and toilet seat covers, Sister is sure the puzzle will be solved. Be prepared to join in the frivolity in this irreverent work created by Maripat Donovan with Jane Morris and Marc Silvia.
For tickets ($34.50 and up), call Long Wharf Theatre, 222 Sargent Drive, New Haven at203-787-4282 or online at www.longwharf.org. Performances are Tuesday at 7 p.m., Wednesday at 2 p.m. and 7 p.m., Thursday and Friday at 8 p.m., Saturday at 3 p.m. and 8 p.m. and Sunday at 2 p.m.
