SEX, LUST, POWER. And a hot nun? A zany, musical romp through the magical, mystical world of the seminary and the tortured Catholic mind of our Hero, who is headed on a collision course with the ultimate choice. Celibacy. There's no life like It! Are You Priest Enough? is brought to you by the same creative team that brought In Tow to the Calgary Fringe in 2006 and the Regina, Edmonton and Vancouver Fringes in 2007. Original music has been written by local Calgary artist Kris Benoit.

As a professor waits for his newest pupil, his maid warns him of the disastrous consequences of taking on another student. The lesson begins and the student's deficiencies soon become apparent. Higher education takes a shocking turn in this blackly comic absurdist classic by Eugene Ionesco.

Experience the storytelling power of pure movement with Alms, a play without words that tells the story of a coin dropped at a bus stop and the character whose life it changes. At turns both comic and tragic, this fusion of mime and physical theatre explores the dark side of charity in a story about giving, as told through the eloquent movements of a cast headed by internationally acclaimed mime and movement artist Yayoi.

Clare Morgan is a mild-mannered church secretary by day. Behind Niamh - a locally fashioned Celtic harp appropriately painted black - she is Clarity, an alternative singer-songwriter. Having stolen her voice back from the Wicked Witch of Mediocrity, she seeks to escape its clutches by soul-stirring (and sometimes foot-stomping) original music. Bring your tallest Mohawk and your blackest leather to this event.
