Nunsense | Sept. 26-8, Oct. 3-5
Nunsense is a hilarious spoof about the misadventures of five nuns of the Little Sisters of Hoboken trying to manage a fundraiser. Sadly, the rest of the sisterhood died from botulism after eating a meal prepared by Sister Julia (Child of God). Thus, the remaining nuns stage a talent show in order to raise the money to bury their dearly departed. With catchy songs and irreverent comedy, Nunsense is sure to keep audiences rolling with laughter.
