The
Pink Panther Strikes Again
presented by Bishop Chatard
Theatre
October 18 - 20
The world’s most unusual criminologist, Chief Inspector Jacques Clouseau, fights for his life and for the future of all mankind in this hilarious play for all ages that will keep you entertained from start to finish. The inspector’s boss (now turned villain) holds the world at bay with the ultimate weapon, the Doomsday Machine. Blissfully unaware that an army of deadly assassins is gunning for him, or that the beautiful girl who seeks him out is a Russian agent, the inspector incredibly stumbles and slips by every attack.

The other Vocations Box (containing a cross and vocations prayers) we would like BCHS families to volunteer to keep for a week at a time. We will send the box home with your student on Monday afternoon, and it will need to be returned the following Monday morning.
