She is a little sexually repressed and a little bit rock and roll. So, if you have been personally victimized by Catholic school... you are entitled to compensation!! Buttt you're gonna have to settle for some singing, dancing, puppetry, clown and a cartwheel. More fun than youth group, it's Saint Sydney! Directed by Saturday Night Live alum Vannessa Jackson.
