Catholic Guilt Tickets

Did you also go to Catholic school from 1st through 12th grade? Do you also find daddy Jesus’s naked body on the cross sexy? Me too. We dive into that and much more such as: losing our virginity in the most holy way, abortion, a cosmic bowling experience that leads to eternal damnation, and the list goes on…

In this daring and immersive production, McCaughan fearlessly challenges the deep-rooted sensibilities surrounding religion. With a unique blend of audience participation, cringey personal recounts, and stand-up adjacent clowny performance, Catholic Guilt offers a poignant, subversive, and hilarious exploration of the impossible standards imposed by the Catholic Church.

This show is for anyone who wants to release shame and guilt surrounding religion. We will laugh. We will sin. Will we make it to hell together?

The critically acclaimed Catholic Guilt just finished a full run at the 2023 Edinburgh Fringe Festival with the renowned Underbelly. Catholic Guilt was nominated for best newcomer with the ISH Edinburgh comedy awards and garnered rave reviews from both The Wee Review and Chortle. It had an almost fully sold out run while touring in Edinburgh and was listed in Philly magazine as one of the picks for “Your best Fringe Festival” as well as The Philadelphia Inquirer for "Fringe Festers' guide to what you should be watching at the Philadelphia Fringe Festival."
