Freeport Players – Drinking Habits, by Tom Smith

Freeport Players presents a hilarious farce, Drinking Habits, by Tom Smith, at the Freeport Performing Arts Center (FPAC, 30 Holbrook St.) on two weekends, August 8-10 and 15-17. Lots of laughs, many doors opening and shutting, and many secrets held and revealed. Fridays and Saturdays at 7:30 pm, and Sundays at 3 pm. Tickets will be available in advance at www.fcponline.org ($20) or at the door ($24). FPAC is air-conditioned, and accessible.

Accusations, mistaken identities, and romances run wild in this sidesplitting, laugh-out-loud farce. Two nuns at the Sisters of Perpetual Sewing have been secretly making wine to keep the convent’s doors open, but Paul and Sally, reporters and formerly engaged, are hot on their trail. They go undercover as a nun and priest, but their presence, combined with the addition of a new nun, spurs paranoia throughout the convent that spies have been sent from Rome to shut them down. Wine and secrets are inevitably spilled as everyone tries to preserve the convent and reconnect with lost loves.
