'BIBLE BINGO' Heads to Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts, 1/9

Vicki Quade and Nuns4Fun Entertainment are proud to announce the opening of BIBLE BINGO: A Comedy with God, Games & Goofy Prizes, for two performances only on January 9, at the Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts. Performances will be at 2 p.m. and 7:30 p.m.

BIBLE BINGO is a comedy about the Catholic culture of fundraising and bingo, featuring the character, Mrs. Mary Margaret O'Brien, a former nun who now heads a fictitious archdiocese fundraising department. It's written by Vicki Quade, one of the creators of the international hit comedy, Late Nite Catechism.

The Chicago Stage Standard calls the show, "A fresh new twist on bingo." New City Chicago raves, "the show is filled with Catholic humor."

In this interactive comedy, the parish needs money and Mrs. O'Brien is ready to help! Bring the two together and you have a night of bible trivia, audience interaction, improvised moments, and the funniest quiz about the Holy Family you've ever seen.

Add to that a box of wacky prizes, fun bingo cards, and a lot of Catholic humor. In this interactive bingo show, you'll actually play bingo, and still learn a little something about what it means to be Catholic! The show gets the audience talking about everything from Adam & Eve to modern sins.

You'll be laughing so hard, you'll have to be careful watching your bingo cards!

"BIBLE BINGO is a really good show," says Theatre by Numbers. "A number of people get together to have some munchies and drinks. They play a few rounds of Bingo while they laugh, sing, chat, and goof around. It is a beautiful thing."

Tickets are $20 to $30. For tickets, call the theater box office at 309-434-2777. The Bloomington Center for the Performing Arts website is www.artsblooming.org. For more information, check out www.nuns4fun.com.
