Wisconsin's own Diana Carl Alioto will be playing the lead role of "Sister" for the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center's engagement. Alioto received a B.A. in Theatre from Marquette University and an M.F.A. in acting from Binghamton University in New York. She has been acting professionally for over twenty-five years. Besides playing "Sister" since 2003, favorite roles include Bettina Barnes in Psycho Beach Party, Bunny in The House of Blue Leaves, Kaye in The Taffetas and Matron "Mama" Morton in Chicago. Diana also performs in the Florentine Opera chorus in Milwaukee.

Late Nite Catechism has brought its nostalgic kick to every state in the US as well as to Canada, the UK and Australia, and now it's coming to the Fox Cities Performing Arts Center. Late Nite Catechism is a wildly funny play that takes the audience back to their youth bringing the Catholic school atmosphere into a setting everyone can enjoy. The New York Times calls it "uproarious interactive theater." With Sister's witty lessons, you can't help but laugh! Even the most reluctant "students" will be clamoring to get into this class! According to Talking Broadway, "You don't have to be Catholic to enjoy Late Nite Catechism." So grab your friends and take them for a night out they won't soon forget!

'Til Death Do Us Part: Late Nite Catechism 3 is the latest class to be unveiled in this sinfully funny series. After teaching countless students all about the saints, venial sins, guilt, limbo and more, Sister is now offering up hilarious lessons on the Sacraments of Marriage and Last Rites, including her own wacky version of "The Newlywed Game." Classroom participation is a must, so bring along your sweetie and your sense of humor for a session with the country's feistiest couples counselor!

Late Nite Catechism is locally supported by Hand and Upper Extremity Center of Northeast Wisconsin, Ltd. and Willis of Wisconsin, Inc. The Boldt Arts Alive! Series is supported by the title sponsor, The Boldt Company. The Boldt Arts Alive! Series is also supported in part by a grant from the Wisconsin Arts Board with funds from the State of Wisconsin and the National Endowment for the Arts.
