Nunsense

Directed by Joyce Perkins

August 24 to September 16, 2001

The 5th production of the 2001 Season

Book, Music, and Lyrics by: Dan Goggin

The surviving Little Sisters of Hoboken need to raise money to bury their sisters who were accidentally poisoned by the convent cook, Sister Julia (Child of God). With the deceased nuns on ice in the deep freeze, they decide to stage a variety show in the Mount Saint Helen’s School auditorium to raise the necessary amount. Participating in the project are Mother Superior Mary Regina, a former circus performer who can not resist the spotlight; her competitive but dignified rival, second-in-command Sister Mary Hubert; Sister Robert Anne, a streetwise nun from Brooklyn; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is determined to be the world’s first ballerina nun; and wacky, childlike Sister Mary Amnesia, who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head.
