Choose options
Charles Busch’s wickedly hilarious camp comedy hit 'The Divine Sister' arrived Off-Broadway at the Soho Playhouse in 2010, running for an astonishing 252 performances and capturing the Outer Critics Circle nomination. Conceived as an affectionate, razor-sharp parody of classic Hollywood cinema nun tropes moving from *The Song of Bernadette* to *The Singing Nun*, the frantic plot centers on Mother Superior, a fierce, basketball-playing matriarch who orchestrates a complex series of deceptions to secure funding for a new convent school while navigating a web of hidden pasts. Directed by Carl Andress, the production starred Busch drag-portraying the Mother Superior.
