Description
A live performance of a brand new episode of the confessional podcast sitcom, Forgive Me! This series follows Father Ben, a young, relatively try-hard priest recently reassigned from Binghamton to St. Patrick’s, a new parish in an unnamed Upstate New York town, under mysterious circumstances. Each episode follows Ben into the confessional with another eccentric parishioner from around town, exploring the intertwined lives of this new community and the funny, sad, and sometimes painful experiences that come out of the Catholic experience. One of the Dogs sees Ben take a series of escalating confessions from participants in the local Salty Dog Central New York Canine Expo. This cut-throat competition sees its contestants go to the absolute extreme in order to secure their animals' entry into the coveted Eastminster Dog Show. With a cast made up of all local Syracuse talent, see Forgive Me! performed live for the first time in front of a local audience in the city where their show’s first season was born.
