Billion Dollar Saint, The         Seven Nuns At Las Vegas         Seven Nuns South Of The Border



Billion Dollar Saint, The

Synopsis:
Through an error, St. Francis of Assisi visits a Jesuit University instead of a Franciscan Monastery five miles up the road. Jesuits and Franciscans are equally embarrassed, and both fear the publicity the supernatural visitor will being. While they argue, St. Francis converts the Jesuit football team to the simple way of life and clad only in brown tunics which make them 20 pounds lighter on the field, they win a spectacular victory over their rivals. But this game is televised around the world and the sight of American boys barefooted, in rags, causes international complications; Britain starts a "Bundles for America" campaign; other countries begin to pay their debts: Then the University Alumni, misunderstanding the situation, raise a billion dollars for their Alma Mater-which the Franciscans try to claim.

Seven Nuns At Las Vegas

Synopsis:
When it snows on a May Day in Indiana, Sister Columba, an elderly rheumatic nun, asks St. Joseph to take her where the weather is warm. St. Joseph takes her, the convent, and six other nuns who happen to be in the convent at the moment, to the warm sands of Nevada-just outside of Las Vegas. Las Vegas is a shock to the nuns and to St. Joseph, and the nuns and St. Joseph have a startling effect on Las Vegas. This bustling resort town gives up gambling and takes up contemplation; the Bible becomes a best seller; a mission priest is the rage of the nightclub crowd; three dancing girls from the Silver Dollar, Peaches, Boots, and Baby, decide to take the veil. But: the nuns have their problems too. There is real-estate difficulty; they own the convent but not the ground; the younger nuns thumb rides to town; Peaches, Boots and Baby teach one of the sisters a dance routine; and finally the sister in charge finds herself offering to "place a small bet." St. Joseph and the nuns realize they had better go home, so St. Joseph returns the convent and its occupants to Indiana-the occupants at the moment including the proprietor of the Silver Dollar and the Board of Directors of the Amalgamated Night Clubs. "While the play is a farce, the nuns are not farcical characters, nor are they characters of saccharine pietistic tendencies. They are rather the ordinary, gracious, efficient American nuns." -Sister M. Agnese, S.P., Catholic Theatre. "We highly recommend this play and are confident it will answer quests for a play that is both humorous and charming." -The Catholic Alumnae Quarterly.
