NUNSENSE is a show put up by the remaining five nuns from the monastery, The Little Sisters of Hoboken. We follow the five nuns in their effort to raise money in order to burry the last 4 out of 52 deceased sisters. The reason for the tragic circumstances turns out to be botulism, occurring after a meal of vichyssoise prepared by the monastery’s chef, Sister Julia (Child of God) The five sisters left, were fortunate enough to be away on the infamous night, playing bingo in the adjacent parish. So by putting up NUNSENSE the five nuns are hoping that money can be raised among the audience.
SONGS:
Veni Creator Spiritus,
Nunsense is Habit-forming A difficult transition,
Benedicite,
The Biggest Ain't the Best,
Playing Second fiddle,
So you want to be a Nun,
Turn up the Spotlight,
Lilacs Bring Back Memories,
Tackel that Temptation,
Growing up Catholic,
We've got to clean out the Freezer,
Just a Coupl'a Sisters,

Gloria in Excelsis deo,
Holier than Thou.
