HOLY GHOST BINGO Reopens at The Greenhouse Theater Center Next Month
Holy Ghost Bingo will run for five weeks only throughout the Halloween season, starting Friday, October 1, through Sunday, October 31
Who is the patron saint of werewolves? Which saint died and went to hell, then came back to life? Can you dress as a sexy nun for Halloween? You'll learn the answers to these and more in the hit comedy, Holy Ghost Bingo: God, Goblins, & Games, reopening October 1, just in time for the Halloween season, at the Greenhouse Theater Center, Chicago.
Written by Vicki Quade, who is also the co-creator of the hit comedy, Late Nite Catechism, this Halloween bingo show will have you howling with laughter.
The premise is that Mrs. Mary Margaret O'Brien, a former nun, is here tonight to raise money while playing bingo and talking about Halloween traditions, scary movies, condemned board games, haunted churches, the best candy, and the worst costumes. It's a crazy night of Halloween trivia, audience interaction, and the funniest costume contest you've ever seen.
Add to that a box of wacky prizes, some Halloween candy, fun bingo cards, and a lot of Catholic humor for a night of entertainment you'll never forget. And in this interactive bingo show, you'll actually play bingo. What could be more fun?! You'll be laughing so hard, you'll have to be careful watching your bingo cards!
Actress Nancy Greco joins the Nuns4Fun family, and will star in Holy Ghost Bingo, along with creator Vicki Quade, Kathleen Puls Andrade, and Liz Cloud.
Greco is vice-president of the Italian American Theatre of Chicago, and served as president of the Board of the Michael Teolis Singers, of which she was a founding member. Her acting, singing and directing credits include Mother Athanasius in "Over the Tavern" at Theatre at the Center; "California Suite," "Rocket City, Alabam'" and "Talking With" at the Skokie Theatre; "Anything Goes," and "Arsenic and Old Lace" at the Metropolis Performing Arts Center, as well as productions at Citadel Theatre, Lake Forest; Mercury Theatre, Chicago; Illinois Theatre Center, Park Forest; and Riverfront Theatre, Rockford.
Holy Ghost Bingo is part of Quade's bingo series, which also includes the long-running hits Bible Bingo, Christmas Bingo, and Easter Bunny Bingo.
"As the creator of Late Nite Catechism, Vicki Quade knows a thing or two about what makes a one-person show successful," says Pioneer Press, Chicago.
Holy Ghost Bingo will run for five weeks only throughout the Halloween season, starting Friday, October 1, through Sunday, October 31. Show times are Fridays and Saturdays at 8 p.m., Sundays at 2 p.m.
