'Til Death Do Us Part: Late Nite CatechismUpcoming Event:
Step back into Catholic school for a night of Holy hilarity! Join Renew the ‘I do’ for a private date night performance at the New Hazlett Theater on Friday, March 27th, featuring Late Nite Catechism 3: ’Til Death Do Us Part. This brand-new installment of the internationally acclaimed series finds Sister teaching her laugh-out-loud lessons on Marriage, Last Rites, and the challenges of everyday life just for Renew the 'I do' couples!
The evening begins at 6:00 PM (doors open at 5:45 PM) with a warm welcome to the artsy and beautiful New Hazlett lobby, where you’ll enjoy yummy "Lenten" bites and a drink from the cash bar. To set the tone, Fr. Thom will offer a joyful reflection on marriage and faith, preparing our hearts for an evening that’s as meaningful as it is side-splitting.
Then it’s time for Sister’s classroom! With her quick wit and audience participation, she’ll take us on a nostalgic (and mischievous) journey back to chalkboards, and Catholic school rules. Just beware: if you come in late or let your phone ring, you will be called out! The night wraps up with Sister’s own irreverent version of “The Newlywed Game,” giving select couples a chance to shine.
This one-night-only private performance blends comedy, community, and Catholic culture into a joyful date night that celebrates marriage in a way only Sister can deliver.
