-
Kate (24): A nervous novitiate expecting a baby at any moment, whose intense cravings and physical state complicate the stage performance.
-
Paul (24): Stressed and stricken with severe stage fright, he ends up trying to direct the chaotic fundraising play.
Sally (20s): Dodging Paul after another fled wedding, she navigates the backstage pandemonium.

Show Synopsis
The Sisters of Perpetual Sewing miss the excitement of the old days when they were saving convents and reuniting long-lost families. So, when they learn that the orphanage where Paul and Kate grew up is in peril, they can’t wait to come to the rescue. Everyone pitches in to mount a play to raise money, but it’s no easy feat when Kate’s expecting any day, Sally’s hiding from stagefright-stricken Paul after another flight from the altar, Mother Superior’s acting is unexpectedly narcoleptic, and the sisters’ award-winning wine keeps getting switched with the grape juice. The merry mix-ups multiply in this warm and winsome sequel to Drinking Habits.
