←Recommendations of Incident at Our Lady of Perpetual Help

I laughed out loud more times than I can count as I read this funny and touching play. And as I think back on a few of the best lines, I'm laughing again. Wonderful parts for four women and a terrific role for a man who can serially embody a working-class father, a priest, and a troublesome female parishioner/neighbor. It's no wonder Incident at Our Lady of Perpetual Help continues to rack up productions. I wish there was going to be one near me! Or that I could be in it . . .

This memory play is terrific! College-age Linda introduces us to her Irish Catholic family and together - with lots of asides, comedic interruptions, and requests for monologues - they tell the story of one week in 1973 that almost destroyed Linda's reputation forever. The characters are all so distinct, and I loved watching them interact with each other. I would love to see this one live!

An incredibly funny and relatable comedy to anyone who grew up in a religious household. Well done.
