NUNSENSE Runs July 15-23

MCP_Nunsense logoNUNSENSE
Mason Community Players
July 15-23
Mason Community Playerhouse

Directed by Jay Fultz
Music directed by Pete Padolik
Choreographed by Abby Farmer

Cast: Julie Pous as Sr. Mary Regina, Mary Taylor as Sr. Mary Hubert, Lara Gonzalez as Sr. Mary Robert Anne, Kelley Faaugher as Sr. Mary Amnesia & Kim Toft as Sr. Mary Leo

It all begins when the Little Sisters of Hoboken discover that their cook, Sister Julia, Child of God, has accidentally poisoned 52 of the sisters, and they are in dire need of funds for the burials. The sisters decide that the best way to raise the money is to put on a variety show, so they take over the school auditorium, which is currently set up for the eighth grade school play. Here we meet Reverend Mother Regina, a former circus performer; Sister Mary Hubert, the Mistress of Novices; a streetwise nun from Brooklyn named Sister Robert Anne; Sister Mary Leo, a novice who is a wannabe ballerina; and the delightfully wacky Sister Mary Amnesia, the nun who lost her memory when a crucifix fell on her head. Featuring star turns, tap and ballet dancing, an audience quiz, and comic surprises, this show has become an international phenomenon. With more than 5000 productions worldwide, it has been translated into 21 languages.
