The play takes place in the main room of the convent of the “Sisters of Perpetual Sewing.” Their calling is to mend robes that have been damaged and sent to them for repair. After they have finished mending them, they ship them back to their owners. Because this does not fully sustain the cost of running the convent, two nuns have been harvesting the vineyards, making wine and then selling it to the town's people. The Mother Superior has no clue that this is going on. Along come two reporters (former fiancées) who have gotten wind of this wine making and disguise themselves as a priest and a nun to investigate. The Mother Superior thinks they may be spies, and they have been sent from Rome to possibly shut them down. Their presence along with the arrival of a new nun spurs paranoia throughout the convent which results in accusations, mistaken identities and romance.
