What the Catholic Church is saying 

 

"Vatican II: What the Hell Happened? is a great evening of entertainments. Lots of laughs, lots of nostalgia, and generally lots of fun."   

Mary Casatelli,
Religious Coordinator of Fund Raising,
Mary Queen of Heaven, Brooklyn NY.


 

"My seventh and eight graders learned more about the Catholic Church in the two hours of the show than they could have learned in a whole semester of Catholic education.  I highly recommend this show for a teaching tool."
 

Kathy McGuire

            Head of Religious Education

            St. Teresa, Summit NJ.
 


I enjoyed the show very much.  I really didn't know what to expect because I couldn't figure for the life of me just how you would approach this topic.  You negotiated all of this with a sensitivity, warmth and even tenderness and humor. 

Monsignor John Burton


The 136 year old walls of the Kirkpatrick chapel echoed with laughter during Kathleen Cogan's one woman show Vatican II: What The Hell Happened?

 

Ms Cogan's delightful character Margaret Mary O'Malley's plea to save her beloved church was made all the more poignant by Kirkpatrick chapel's excellent example of High Victorian Gothic ecclesiastical architecture.

 

Theater lovers of all faiths could not help but vote unanimously to save the church when immersed in the rich history of the Catholic Church and elegant surroundings of Kirkpatrick chapel.

"Vatican II was a huge success".  Your interaction with the crowd was genius. Even non-Catholic will appreciate the humor and get a sense of what it must have been like before and after Vatican II."

What a great show! Everyone should see it.  By the way what the Hell did happen?

Who knew you could mix historical Catholic fact with comedy? Well Vatican II What the Hell Happened? did just that. Kathy Cogan who played a choir director trying to save her church from  destruction mixed true Catholic information with her own personal experience.
Her personal journey coincided with the churches change during the Vatican I ,Vatican II era.
Real fact was at some times as funny as her own embarrassing experiences growing up Catholic.  Our fund-raiser was a great success because of such a great night of
entertainment, a night you could bring your whole family to.
