avoid a
financial crisis at their convent, the Little Sisters of Hoboken are
staging a benefit show.
Between comical mishaps and stumbling over their own personalities, the
nuns -
Mother Superior Regina (Marla Moreland), Sister Hubert (Clair
Eversole), Sister
Robert Anne (Suzy Brayton), Sister Leo (Marilyn Dickinson), and Sister
Amnesia
(JoAnn McGrath) - manage to avert the crisis by the show's
conclusion.
Don't miss this one; all Punta Banda will be talking about these ladies
long
after final performance. Place: Gertrude Pearlman Theatre, Campo
La Jolla,
Punta Banda (16 m south of Ensenada
towards La Bufadora). Time: 4:00 p.m. Donation: $8.00 / 88 pesos
