FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

NOVI, Michigan, January 31, 2008The Novi Theatres is pleased to announce they have been chosen to present the community theatre "world premier" of the musical comedy Father Bingo. The production includes seven performances to be held at the Novi Middle School Auditorium, located at 49000 Eleven Mile Road.

In Father Bingo everyone is looking for salvation; a parish priest fights to save his church and rejuvenate the congregation, a mayor tries to win the hearts of the voters in support of gambling- his idea of the city's winning ticket, a woman searches for the perfect match. Everyone believes the next number to come up will be theirs. The stakes are raised with the introduction of bingo- one of the most popular games in the world. When political intrigue and mistaken identity come into play, even God has to smile watching these mortals figure it all out. Father Bingo made its world premiere with a limited engagement at Detroit's Music Hall Center for the Performing Arts in February 2006 and included the original Vandellas as part of the cast.

For those who love bingo or musical comedy and for all of us who believe that we have the chance to be a winner - the odds have it that Father Bingo is the ticket.
