Annapolis Entertainment
Bay Theatre’s hilarious plays, Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You and Actor’s Nightmare, are still available for viewing this week. The first, Sister Mary Ignatius Explains It All For You, is about a strict nun who gets more than she bargained for when former pupils return to pay her a visit. The second play is hilarious in its unfortunate, uncanny theme: an actor forgets his clothes and everything else on stage! To learn about these plays, head to www.baytheatre.org. These plays start one after the other. See them before they go out on March 17.
