This is a fantastic 'Blast from the Past'.
This happened right after WYD in Denver in 1993
WooHoo! Go Mother Angelica!

Blast From The Past: Mother Angelica 1993 – “My agenda is not hidden.”
Back in 1993 Mother Angelica blew up when, at World Youth Day (10-15 August), there was a mimed Stations of the Cross during which a woman portrayed Christ. Someone gave me a recording of her reaction.
She called out the dissident nomenklatura reigning at the time.
Mother’s reaction caused a lot of people to run in circles and ring their hands. It could be argued that this moment was a watershed in the Church in these USA. Dissidents push and push and push the borders little by little as far as they can. She stood up, like Leonidas, and said “No!”.
This was the moment, by the way, when Mother and her community rejected their modernized habit and went back to more traditional habits.
She called out the dissident nomenklatura reigning at the time.
