SISTER'S CHRISTMAS CATECHISM is holding a special "Sing for Sister" contest looking for groups (choirs) comprised of four or more people who can sing and want to be part of the holiday show. Visit www.youtube.com/ncbpac and upload a video of your choir/group singing before Friday, Nov. 27 at 12:00 PM (ET). The groups that are chosen will be given complimentary tickets to SISTER'S CHRISTMAS CATECHISM and will take part in a performance of the show.

Winning groups selected by Sister to perform in SISTER'S CHRISTMAS CATECHISM must be available to participate during one of five dates: Sunday, Dec. 6 at 3 p.m.; Tuesday, Dec. 8 at 7:30 p.m.; Thursday, Dec. 10 at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Dec. 12 at 8 p.m.; or Thursday, Dec. 17 at 7:30 p.m. Groups must also be available 75 minutes prior to curtain time so Sister can instruct them on their roles and to allow for sufficient time to rehearse.

Winning groups will be emailed specific instructions well in advance to the show date. For more details, please email Mary Katherine Durr at mkdurr@ncbpac.org.

Back by popular demand! Catholic school has never been so funny than it is when Sister is the teacher. In this holiday themed show, it's "Forensic Files goes to Bethlehem," in this holiday mystery extravaganza, by the author of LATE NITE CATECHISM and LATE NITE CATECHISM 2, as Sister takes on the mystery that has intrigued historians throughout the ages - Whatever happened to the Magi's gold ("We know that Mary used the frankincense and myrrh as a sort of potpourri - they were in the barn after all.") Assisted by a local choir and a gaggle of audience members, Sister directs an unforgettable living nativity and employs her own CSI-inspired tools to find the culprit. Just make sure and show up on time and silence your cell phones or else you may end up on stage in Sister's circle of silence!

WHEN: Sunday, Dec. 6 at 3 p.m.; Tuesday, Dec. 8 at 7:30 p.m.; Thursday, Dec. 10 at 7:30 p.m.; Saturday, Dec. 12 at 8 p.m.; or Thursday, Dec. 17 at 7:30 p.m.
WHERE: Booth Playhouse (130 North Tryon St. / Charlotte, NC / 28202)
COST: Tickets are complimentary for participating choir groups.
