Prudence Play to Have US Premiere at the Flea

Prudence Play (or Sister Prudence Is Not Gay!), a one-woman show about a young Catholic nun in the midst of a gay identity crisis, will have its US premiere January 7–11 at the Flea Theater.

Written and performed by Brooklyn-based writer, performer, and comedian Caroline Dunn and directed by Frances Rippy, the show is about Sister Prudence, who is waking up to feelings for a fellow sister, wrestling with her every belief, and confessing a lot.

As memories from her past resurface and her dreams get more sinful, Prudence begins to question the voice in her head and is forced to confront her (horny) (gay) demons.

Prudence Play had its world premiere at the 2025 Edinburgh Fringe Festival.
