Misgivings: A Divine Comedy About Growing Up Catholic

On Saturday, February 2, The Palace Danbury will present Father Misgivings in a divine night of comedy about growing up Catholic. From miracles and marriage counseling to bazaars and bingo, nothing escapes the good father's Irish wit.

Father Patrick Aloysius Misgivings is the stage persona of comic Dave Kane, a former radio talk show host listened to by New Englanders for nearly 40 years. He created the character of the Irish-Catholic priest during a slow shift to banter with his co-host. The listeners loved the good father and a career was born.

Kane describes Father Misgiving as "a good and decent man dedicated to doing the right thing for all his parishioners. He's the kind of priest who runs bingo at the parish and is not above calling out the numbers in Latin so the Protestants can't win."

This interactive comedy will feature stories and jokes about the idiosyncrasies of growing up and living life as a Catholic. Filled with belly laughs, blessings, blarney and even a game of bingo, Misgivings will have you laughing down the aisles.

Misgivings will be presented at The Palace Danbury on Saturday, February 2, at 8:00 PM. Tickets cost $20 in advance and $25 at the door. They can be ordered on the phone by calling  203 794-9944, online at www.thepalacedanbury.com , or purchased at the door the night of the show. The theatre is located at 165 Main Street in downtown Danbury, CT. Free parking is readily available for Palace patrons behind the theatre building.
