NUNSENSE handler om nonneklosteret The Little Sisters of Hoboken’s anstrengelser for at rejse penge til at begrave de sidste 4 af de 52 nonner, der er døde af botulisme efter at have spist vichyssoise tilberedt af klostrets køkkenchef Sister Julia (Child of God). De fem nonner i forestillingen er undsluppet samme skæbne, fordi de var til bingospil i et andet sogn den famøse aften. ¨Nunsense¨ er den forestilling, nonnerne stabler på benene i håbet om, at publikum vil hjælpe dem med de nødvendige økonomiske midler.
