Mother Superior Rocks St. Damian

Making plans for the weekend? Patch has rounded up a list of events and activities going on in and around Oak Forest.

If nothing matters but the weekend, you better plan it out. Patch is here to help by spotlighting some of what's going on Friday, Saturday and Sunday in and around Oak Forest.

Mother Superior is coming to St. Damian! Saturday, Nov. 23 check out Ho-Ho Holy Night,  a comedy show from the co-creator of the hit Late Nite Catechism. In Mother Superior's Ho-Ho-Holy Night, Mother Superior shows up to look at how Santa took over Christmas, and has some ideas on how she can get it back. Some questions she'll consider: Was Santa in the manger? Is Baby Jesus in the sleigh? Did the elves guide the Wise Men? Mother Superior is determined to figure it all out.

Doors open at 6 p.m., show starts at 7. Tickets are $20 each, or reserved seats for $25 each. Get more info.
