What do four nuns, a priest, two reporters who impersonate a nun and a priest, a Cardinal and a somewhat clueless gardener who also dresses up as a priest have in common? If that sounds confusing, it is! If you need a laugh, head to Wabeno Area Players production of “Drinking Habits” by Tom Smith.
“Drinking Habits” tells the story of two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing who have been secretly making wine to keep the convent doors open. Their operation is threatened when two reporters, posing as a nun and a priest, arrive in search of a story.
Chaos ensues as accusations and mistaken identities run wild in this laugh-out-loud farce. Sprinkle in additional nuns and some romance and you’ve got a hilarious experience at the theater.
